Hubers vs. Walt's: A Farm Stand Showdown 05/26/2011

In addition to the goats, there's a mammoth muddy pig, two... ![]() Have you been to Richardson's Farms yet? Last year they built a brand new market that looks like a mini Cracker Barrel. Inside they sell local veggies, dairy, poultry, bottled dressings and delicious made-on-site peanut butter. This trip I bought a huge bag of fresh Kale for $2. Tom came home with a tub of Capuchino flavored peanut butter and Eamon nabbed 4 Cow Tales and a bag of Bacon flavored Nutterz made right here in Baltimore. While we were shopping, the in-house chef was setting up for one of their monthly cooking classes. That evening's lesson was all about Asparagus. They have a full deli with warm.... | Jackie McTear
