Your Local Farmer's Market!

 

Looks like they are popping up everywhere.

Just about every community or nearby community has a Farmer's Market.

Why the popularity?

  • Supporting family operated small farms - create local business.
  • Locally Grown - freshness, better taste.
  • Nutrient Dense - nutrient value is lost being picked early and shipped from far away.
  • Variety - find choices that you normally don't see at the local grocery.
  • Organic - pesticide and herbicide free. Even higher in nutrient value.
  • CSA - Community Supported Agriculture -  farmer's deliver right to your door. 
  • Supporting local restaurants  -  restauranteurs' supporting the farmer and wonderful fresh menus.
  • Bringing the community together - Say hello to your neighbors. Connect!
  • Quality Foods - picked just a few hours before.
  • Eating Seasonal Foods - Eat summer foods in the summer. Fall foods in the fall!
  • Opportunity to talk to the farmer - Ask questions. Recipes. Try Something new.

The best foods your body can have. It's just healthy.
