Expect root veggies, assorted greens and plants starts now...the next few months bring more produce and more markets! |
(excepted from the Oregonian 'FOODday' Apr 1, 2008)
Although it brings showers for May flowers, April also brings farmers markets - and lots of them. Starting Thursday April 3, 2008, parking lots and parks around Portland and the surrounding communities will bustle wth tent poles, tarps and metal cash boxes as area farmers present their fare to resident cooks.
You'll find plenty of root vegitables, braising greens and lettuces, and of course plant starts for your own vegetable garden.

The Oregon Department of Environmental Quality approved Owens Corning's revised plans to produce insulation in Gresham, granting the company a permit to finish construction and start production.
DEQ's decision last week comes after years of environmental controversy about the plant.
