Edible Columbus Winter 2010 : Page 18
Local and in Season WINTER FARMERS MARKETS inter is a time for turning inward to gather strength. The bright, open days of the Ohio growing season are over. While the fresh harvest is small, there is much to be gained from the energy winter crops provide. Storage and root crops make the list—onions, parsnips, potatoes, winter squash, turnips, cabbage and carrots. Come late February and early March, maple syrup starts flowing. Some of our local farmers, however, grow greenhouse crops and offer winter CSA shares. Which is why it’s so important to visit your local winter farmers market—because you never know what you might find. 7 W Worthington Market, Griswold Senior Center, 777 High Street, 614-842-6320, every Saturday until spring Clintonville Market, Clintonville Women’s Club, 3951 N.
