To Market To Market

What, a book?  People were confused when To Market To Market showed up, but so many of you have told us about Nikki McClure's books.  We have her cards, her calendars (not till next fall!), so why not her book about farmers markets?

It's spring, the year round U-District Farmers Market is livening up as the sun starts peeking out, and To Market To Market seemed like just the thing you need sitting on your shelf next to your  Maritime NW Gardening Guide from Tilth or the latest issue of Edible Seattle.

I grew up with Robert McCloskey's books, One Morning in Maine, Make Way for Ducklings, Time of Wonder, and of course Blueberries for Sal.  Maybe "To Market To Market" is the book for the modern Northwest child.

Spring: New Titles and Latest Editions

 

  
New for Spring, zine Put a Egg On It #3 an "art and literary magazine out of New York City about food, cooking and the communal joys of eating with friends and family"  Matthew & Jean both recommend checking it out!  You can find it in the zine section near the Inner Swine and the First Line.

Also, the latest edition of The Maritime Northwest Garden Guide from Tilth.  This Saturday March 19th is the early spring plant sale.  The event is no longer at the Good Shepherd Center, but over at the Interbay Urban Center (Whole Foods).  Tilth will also be having a workshop on city chickens.

Come by afterward and make us jealous with your new plants.  You know that Gloria loves to talk about gardening!

And just a quick mention of a few other new titles!

   

Fab, Filament, Be Street, and Carl's Cars.  You can find all three in Pop Culture.  Be Street is French Urban magazine, Fab (not to be confused with Toronto's biweekly gay magazine Fab) is Fabulous, African and Black, and comes out of the lively Nigerian cultural scene.  Filament, a little naughtiness for women.  Carl's Cars - ah there is my secret vice.  Car magazines.  And one with David Lynch?  We will have to talk about Car magazines later!
