We sincerely apologize for the last-minute announcement, but...

That's right, our friend Patrice Fortier (of La Société des Plantes fame) is in town today and he's holding one of his famous impromptu street sales at Villeneuve Bicycle at the corner of (you guessed it!) Villeneuve and St. Urbain from 11 a.m. till about 4 p.m. (or whenever he sells out). He's got squashes (Hubbard and decorative), shallots, baby yellow onions, celeriac, turnips, rare French beets, fingerling potatoes, parsley, chard, Jerusalem artichokes, espelette peppers, and a few other goodies. You won't find produce like this anywhere else in town and his prices are very reasonable. Pay Patrice a visit. You won't regret it.
