ICC Farm Market

Jon’s been bringing back amazing fruit and vegetables from the ICC Bastion Square Farm Market. Not too surprising really considering the goods are all island grown and picked at their peak to deliver the very best flavor. Last Thursday it was strawberries for dessert, patty pan squash on a special pizza and fingerling potatoes in a fresh salad. Today it is melon, onions and more patty pan. Prosciutto & melon? Fresh onions in a salad or a pizza? If you haven’t made it to the market yet, please do – Thursday & Friday in Bastion Square beginning at 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Or come to the pizzeria and experience what Jon has picked up in one of his market shops.
