Question: Where to find butter beans in Mahoning Valley?
We recently moved from Columbia Maryland and had access to several large farmer markets in Baltimore and Washington area. At these markets several vendors sold various varieties of butter beans. Is there anyone in this area that grows and sells them? We are also looking for various types of greens, mustard, kale, collards and kohlrabi.

Mahoning Valley Farmer Answer:
I have done some checking and have been unable to find anyone in this area that is growing these products for sale. One place that might carry these items when they are in season is the West Side Market in Cleveland (http://www.westsidemarket.org/).

To find other fresh produce in the Mahoning Valley area, look at the various local markets on this site in the Online Guide, especially the individual Farm Markets pages which detail each product that they offer. The Mahoning Farm Bureau The Farmers Market web site also lists local markets.
