Farmers Market Score

Federal Plaza

This morning, walking to work through Federal Plaza, I was pleased to see the farmers markets have started in Chicago.

One of the stands had oodles of native perennials! I was so excited. I bought Joe Pye Weed (Eupatorium purpureum) and Nodding Wild Onion (Allium Cernuum). For a very decent price from a couple from Niles, Michigan. I also got some mint, cilantro and basil for my herb garden.

I may head back there on my lunch break for some more.

Note: I did head back there after lunch for some more Joe Pye Weed, Nodding Wild Onion and Bee Balm.
