This is a nice, small farmers market with three rows of vendors. There's bakeries, lots of fruit and veg (all organic), salmon fillets, kombucha, fresh pasta, the list goes on. I buy some of my produce here. But in all actually, this market is not only pricey, it's kinda over-priced. I still don't quite know why a fresh salmon fillet is 21 bucks a lb. If it's fresh and was caught on Wednesday at the bay shouldn't it be cheaper than what I get from the supermarket that imported from the East Coast? Doesn't help that I don't have a job....yet!
But enough of that. I bought broccoli, potatoes, and tomatoes. I'm going to make a Broccoli, Potato, and Cheese soup. It's still a little warm here (around the early 80's). But I want some soup!!
I'll keep you posted!
Yes I have a farmer's market BUT nothing like yours! Mine is predictable as the produce doesn't change much from week to week AND they don't have artisan breads, 3 types of beets & radishes, cherries, blueberries, heirloom tomatoes, a variety of lettuce, etc.
ReplyDeleteOn the other hand, I guess this is what it means to shop locally - only buy what is produced now. (which in TX means not much since it's been SO dry & Hot!)
