Remember last year when I RAVED about our local farmers market? Well, my preaching is back. Now is the time when most farmers markets are FLOURISHING with goodness, and you most certainly should take advantage of it!
When you buy local you are buying fresh, high quality, produce and you are supporting your local economy at the same time. Plus, let’s be honest, it just tastes better!
In almost every case you will find that the produce is less expensive, and there will be amazing varieties of different types of produce you can try. You may even develop a new taste for something you haven’t ever had before.
If you aren’t sure where there is a local farmers market close to you, I can fix that! Go to Local Harvest and you will be able to enter in your location. It will bring up all of the closest farmers markets to your area. My search looked like this…
You can also search for farms, meat processers, wholesalers, and grocery co/ops, and restaurants, prettty neat-o if you ask me! SO, go local! Try out your nearest farmers market. They are so much fun, and full of fantastic finds!
