Amazing Produce Barn.

I've been a little MIA this week due to training in Boise. The training was actually not an awful experience as I was imagining it to be and I met some cool people. I stayed the night at Jake's sister's house and she made some awesome pasta which I will need to try to recreate soon. On my way home tonight I stopped at one of the many produce stands Idaho has to pick up a pumpkin or two. I had driven by this particular barn once before and noticed that it was busy busy so I decided to stop and see what all the fuss was about. It's now officially my favorite produce barn.

I like this stand because of the wide variety they carry and that you can see the fields right next door, some of which are full of gorgeous flowers. They had all kinds of interesting and fun foods, including Japanese eggplant, peppers I had never heard of, and pretty much every gourd you could imagine, along with the regulars like corn, apples, and potatoes.

Here is my little cart. I ended up getting 3 pumpkins, two bunches of beets, a dozen ears of corn, red jalapenos, cherry bomb peppers, and some apples to go with my galas for the applesauce I'm making. My Auntie always tells me the secret to good applesauce is using multiple types of apples. I have tomorrow off, work all day Friday, and then it's the weekend so I'm sure I'll have plenty of time to can everything. Who knows, I may even go back for more!
