When do PGH farmers markets open?

So, I have a baby just starting solids and I'm dying to make her some baby food with local produce. When do the farmers markets open in and around Pittsburgh?

    the east liberty market by the home depot is open all year but i haven't been there to assess its selection. i know clarion river organics at the snazzy new pgh public market (also year round) in the strip has had root vegetables & other niceties all winter long.

      Some should have opened already, though the ratio of "farm" to "market" might be fairly low at this point (in other words, it may favor non-produce vendors in the early weeks). I know the one in Sewickley starts the first week of April. There's also the one in East Liberty open year-round.
