A time to remember those we lost, and for whom we will be ever thankful--this was our Memorial Weekend.

But was it really the start of summer? With temperatures reading 44 degrees at the New Canaan Farmers' Market, and a stiff wind to match, and an equal 44 degrees at Greenfield Hill Market, we were having trouble convincing ourselves. The Butternut Gardens peonies, iris and first bachelor buttons braved the rain and cold and made their way to both markets. We were happy to say, "Hi" to those of you who stepped out on Saturday morning and dashed through the rain to shop at our markets.

For those of you who missed it, here is a peek of some spring sunshine on that rainy day.

We hope you had a nice Memorial Weekend. We look forward to seeing you next week at market.
