Fresh News from SF Wholesale Produce Market

[Guest guest]

Hi all,

 

I caught an episode of Bay Area Backroads that featured the SF Wholesale

Produce Market. " San Francisco Wholesale Produce Market is home to over 30

produce businesses offering a variety of produce products -- from

Conventional produce and Fresh Cuts, to Asian and Hispanic items as well as

Organics. "

 

What caught my eye on their website was some interesting articles on their

website called " Fresh News " . Here's an example of an issue -

http://www.sfproduce.org/freshnews/07.16.02.htm - gives the history of the

eggplant and current seasonal status (price/availability) of fruits/veggies.

 

Per Bay Area Backroads, the market runs from midnight to 8 a.m. and is open

to the public, although most of its sales are restaurants, stores, etc. The

caveat is you have to buy by the case.

 

It looked pretty interesting. Next time I have insomnia or am planning a

big veggie party, this might be the place to go :-D

 

If you have actually been to this, I'd be curious to hear your impressions

of it!

 

Cheers,

Tammy
