There is a farmer's market area, but unfortunately, I rarely get to go because of my work schedule.

We have a nice farmer's market nearby in the summer/early fall.

However, since my son built me a raised bed garden for veggies, I really don't go anymore.

I also grow sprouts year round inside, so I have plenty of good stuff going here.

I love to go to the farmer's market to get fresh vegetables.  They will usually have samples to taste that are so good.  They also have some other interesting items.

My husband goes to the local farmers' market every week.  We love the constant supply of fresh tomatoes, melons, peaches, greens, beets, eggplant, squash, beans, honey, etc.  We just put up October peas in the freezer!  You can shell them, put them in a 100% cotton pillow case and freeze them that way!  Just get out what you need when ready to cook!  So much simpler than having to blanch first.

Our farmers market really stinks. However I grew my own tomatoes this year and am so pleased. I planted 10 plants and they've just now started coming in. It's so sad that I had forgotten how real tomatoes taste!
