It looks like the rain will be over tomorrow leaving us with an ideal morning to get out and enjoy some great local food, local music, and local community! 
This week at the market, come and enjoy some delicious, fresh strawberries, Asian greens, and lettuce.  Also, cherish those mushrooms before the heat sets in! 
You can learn how to play the oldest board game that is still played, help us START A WORM FARM, and hang out while enjoying the fingerstyle acoustic sound of Joe Wilson.

Recipe

This weeks recipe is from Lori of Whole Hearted Bakery. 

Pasta Primavera
Serves 6 to 8
Pasta Primavera literally translates to "Spring Pasta" and everyone needs to know how to make a big, beautiful pasta dish for warm-weather get-togethers. It's a crowd-pleasing, affordable contribution that goes with most anything, anywhere.
Ingredients
1 pound  Fettuccine, cooked al dente, drained (reserving 3/4 cup liquid)

2 tablespoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1/2 pound button mushrooms, sliced
3 cloves garlic, roughly chopped
2 large spring (or 4 green) onions, thinly sliced
1 1/2 cups fresh green peas
Salt and ground black pepper to taste
3/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 pint cherry tomatoes, halved
1/2 cup roughly chopped basil (optional)
Method
Heat oil in a large, deep skillet over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms and cook until just golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Add garlic and onions and cook 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in peas, salt and pepper. Immediately cover and cook until just tender, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl and set aside.

In the same skillet over medium heat, toss the hot, drained pasta with reserved pasta water, cheese and lemon juice.

Gently toss mushroom mixture and tomatoes into the pasta. Season to taste, transfer to serving bowl(s), top with basil and serve.
