Asian Pears
at North Star

As noted in a previous post, North Star Orchards has returned to the Headhouse Square Farmers’ Market. Yesterday’s big attraction was the Asian pears (foreground). The Ichiban variety was $2.50/pound.

North Star’s carrots, peppers and heirloom tomatoes were also $2.50/pound. Selling for $2/pound were two varieties of apples (Summer Blaze and Chehalis), peaches and nectarines.
