The time is "Ripe" to enjoy Connecticut Peaches at the Ellington Farmers' Market

Don't sleep in this Saturday!  Get up early and bring an extra bag or basket to purchase fresh peaches from Horse Listeners Orchard as part of our peach festival at the market.  Don't miss out on this juicy, sweet, delicious New England treat.  As part of our peach festival the market will be serving fresh peach shortcake made with Luann's delicious biscuits and whipped cream.  Strawberry and blueberry shortcake sold out very early, so you won't want to miss this yummy summer fruit.  Purchase some to bring home for grilling, peach salsa or just enjoying fresh off the tree.   Local fresh produce is at its peak as summer moves forward.  Ride your bike or take a walk to meet your friends at the market -then indulge in peach heaven!
