Polk’s Farm Market


In Hutchinson, we’re blessed to have a little treasure trove right outside of town. It’s technically in Medora, but that’s only a few miles north of Hutch.

It’s an old fashioned fruit and vegetable stand and they have the best stuff. Oh my gosh. It’s worth the trip just to see what’s out there.

Today there were onions and peppers and yukon gold potatoes. Also, apples, plums, peaches, nectarines and pears. Everything looks good there, and there are little samples of various things so you can try out what you want.

Today I brought home some pears. I hated to pass up the potatoes, but since I can’t really cook at home now, it would have been a shame to waste them.

The cantalope smelled wonderful and the watermelon looked great but I don’t have any counter space to work with at the moment so didn’t get any.

Pretty soon they’ll have pumpkins beside the building. It’s where I always get the pumpkins to decorate my front porch. That’s one of the true signs of fall – when Polks get Pumpkins.
