Running Creek Farm -- at Northside Farmers Market





This week I am featuring Running Creek Farm at the Northside Farmers Market. Running Creek has one of the most attractive booths and extensive selections of fresh, locally grown foods you can find at any metro-area market.




Co-owner Jim Lowenburg told me he grows about 14 varieties of potato and 20 types of tomatoes. Yesterday, the booth had a good selection of each along with five types of garlic. If you haven't had fresh-picked, local garlic but only know the supermarket stuff, do yourself a favor and find a market that sells the former. It will be a revelation!


As you can see from the photo, there's also a pretty display of cut flowers for sale here.


Running Creek Farm is in Mt. Healthy, OH, and all their produce is pesticide-free.


Northside Market at Hoffner Park (off Hamilton) is open Wednesdays from 4 - 7:30 PM.
