Sentimental Farm - Plant Sale

We stopped in at Sentimental Farm yesterday and discovered it is their plant sale.  You can see on the sign that they are organic growers of vegetables.

There was lots of activity getting all the vegetable plants organized for the event.  I was excited to find heritage tomatoes of all varieties and some specialty plants - the tiny melon called mouse melon and the climbing spinach.  I saw the spinach at the Kansas Botanical Garden Overland Park a few years ago - a red stemmed climbing edible plant that was exotic and interesting in its appearance.  Its latin name is Basella rubra. You can read about it here.
