Consider Bardwell’s  cheeses aren’t just for us greenmarket customers – they’re also on the cheese boards of such celebrated restaurants as The French Laundry, Blue Hill, and The Spotted Pig. This Saturday the proprietor of Consider Bardwell Farm, Angela Miller, will be on hand at the McCarren Park greenmarket to answer questions about her delicious cheeses and to promote her new book, Hay Fever. It tells the story of how she bought and renovated Consider Bardwell Farm in Pawlett, VT, learned to raise goats, and put together a farming and cheesemaking team that has won awards from coast-to-coast — all while continuing her life as a Manhattan literary agent.

Also happening at the market this weekend:
Osczepinski Farms, more easily known as S & SO, are back for the season. Last week they had fresh chamomile and fat bunches of hearty spinach. Look for the offerings at their booth to expand to bursting over the next few weeks.

There will be strawberries! Yes, Lani’s Farm will have strawberries. Get there early so you don’t miss ‘em!

Red Jacket will be bringing in a new juice blend for the summer season: apples and lemon. I’m told it’s incredibly tasty.

There will also be music by Greg Cornell and his band. And the greenmarket will be giving a demo at the Williamsburg Park Kite Festival happening nearby in McCarren Park.

See you there!
