I found it at the Kensington Farmer’s market (super tiny, near my house) but I have also found it at El Cerrito Natural Grocery and Monterey Market for great prices.

Rachelino (or anyone else) where have you found rhubarb? I’ve been looking for it at a number of different farmer’s markets for the past few weeks, and haven’t found a stalk!

Now I’m excited about cherry season. I think I may try that brandied fruit recipe. Thanks for the great tips!

Well, I already bought it when it appeared last week, so I guess I am cheating but RHUBARB! I buy and freeze it this time of year (cut in 1″ chunks) for use all year long.
Of course, I am excited about strawberries and cherries, the beginning of stone fruit season!
Which farm (or market) sells fres sour/tart cherries in the Bay Area? I thought that I needed to buy IQF cherries from Michigan to get true tart pie cherries.
