Emma Dudley of C&E Farms has some of the most beautiful herbs and heirloom plants you'll ever see, as well as wonderful vegetables. Best of all? She has lots of information on how best to use all the herbs, plants and produce that she brings...a real fount of knowledge whom we're very, very lucky to have! Last Market, she had purslane and perilla, 
two plants which used to be much more common. And if you need an aloe plant, Mrs. Dudley has the nicest aloe I've ever had -- I purchased one last year. Without much care at all (seriously), it's a lovely healthy plants with many little babies, and, best part -- it's really useful.
Last year, she got a bunch of us cooking with Jerusalem artichokes, otherwise known as sunchokes. She'll have them again on Saturday, as well as gorgeous swiss chard, herbs (cut and potted), collaloo, winter squash, peppers, canned pickled beets and peppers, and purslane. She'll also have plants and shrubs from Triangle Seven.
See you this Saturday at the Market!
