Hudson Valley Farmers Markets Sprout Spring Calendars

HUDSON VALLEY, NY — Forsythia and farmers markets — two ways to know it’s spring. Down To Earth Markets puts it just right:

First come the sprouts and blooms to fill out the display of winter apples and root vegetables, then come the early harvests of ramps and asparagus, and then we start zooming past season landmarks — strawberries, peas, spinach — toward summer. Eating with the seasons means appreciating where we are now.
