Guess where we went this weekend. No, it wasn't the deep green woods...
It was the beautiful downtown Portland Farmer's Market!
Oh how I love Ranunculus!
Asparagus of wonder!
Pretty peas.
Ruby red Rhubarb.
Cavorting Kohlrabi.
Colorful Clematis.
And of course, a rocking horse balloon hat!It was lovely! Fortunately the rain held off until Sunday evening, so we were able to fit in a lot of gardening as well. I'll tell you more about that next time. I'm off to attack my Monday.
I hope you had a sweet weekend as well.

Oh, I'm so envious of those trees and the beautiful farmer's market environment you have! Please tell me what is 'Kohlrabi' and how do you prepare/eat it? Can you tell me what the flavor is comparable to? I've never had it (obviously). Thanks!
Beautiful, vibrant photos.
It seems like just yesterday that you posted about the 2010 opening of the Farmers Market in Portland...Nostalgia sets in looking at your beautiful photos.
Isn't it great to finally be able to get dig in the dirt? I finally got to my window boxes and it will be fun to hear about what you got done.
Wow, what gorgeous, bright photos - the market looks fab, especially in that setting. Love the balloon hat!! Abby x
Oh my goodness what a fabulous market. I'm so jealous! Lovely photos - I really enjoy photos of produce ;o)
Oh, I'm jealous. Beautiful shots--thanks for sharing!
Gorgeous, gorgeous colours and a simply wonderful hat! :)

Tip top weekend. But I do feel P G could have crammed a few more colours in to her outfit.
Oh you captured the farmers market perfectly. I can't wait till ours starts :)
This looks amazing!!!!
All those colours and sweetness and beauty.

We were at the Farmer's Market in Milwaukie. Oddly, I didn't see any rhubarb, but we did pick up some asparagus, tomato transplants, and a few other things. I can't wait for strawberries. Strawberry rhubarb pie. Oh yes.
Oh magnificent! What a gorgeous spot for a farmers market, your pictures are brilliant..x
your weekend was definitely filled with sweetness!
loving the colours & that rocking horse balloon hat...superb, perfect for Pony girl!

I am so envious of your market! You are very lucky to live near such a wonderful one.
I am doing a giveaway on my blog as part of Sew Mama Sew's big giveaway - hope you will pop over and join in?

Those snaps are beautiful. Love the photo of the peas!
Ranunculus are my stand-out, all-time favourite. When I am old(er) I plan to spontaneously cultivate a green thumb and grow paddocks filled with 'em.
Looks like heaven, all the abundance of spring! Your photos are gorgeous.
What gorgeous photos, so colourful! Looks like a lovely place.
What amazing inspiration! Great photos!
What a bright, cheerful, colorful weekend!!! Pony Girl looks luscious!

Ooooh, that pea photo is awesome, as of course is the groovy balloon headgear x
What absolutely gorgeous photos, a real visual feast if ever there was one! We have nothing like that near me - sadly!
wow, what a lovely looking market! which reminds me that i still haven't visit the in-the-middle-of-stockholm-city one at certain weekends yet...
