While it may not feel like fall yet, you’ll start seeing orange popping up everywhere at the Red Stick Farmers Market in September. Pumpkins, nectarines and satsumas will all return this month.
Farmers market regulars will see the return of juicy, fresh watermelon this month, in addition to squash, sweet potatoes and tomatoes. Mustard greens, collard greens, snap beans, cantaloupes and cucumber are all still in season as well.
