It's the peak of the dahlia season...so lots of dahlias! They will also have different varieties of sunflowers, hydrangeas, asters and a wide variety of unusual greens to fill out a bouquet. Shoppers can select their own bouquet or they will be happy to do it for you! They are in the last weeks of beautiful garden flowers so get them while they last! Liz will have pear and blackberry pies, from her harvests of pears and blackberries on the farm...doesn't get much more local than that!
In addition to their usual fresh fish offerings, Featured Vendor, Mt. Kisco Seafood, has a specially prepared dish this week...Casa DiLisio Pesto, Shrimp and Pasta!
