I love going to the Farmers Market here too. Not only do they have all the fresh fruits and veggies, but quite a few booths that sell things misc. items. I didn't go this past Saturday because it was just too darn hot to be out walking around the town square.

Our farmer's market is pretty small. Only about 7 or 8 vendors. There was one mehennite or amish family selling bread and jelly's. I asked the price of a loaf of bread and it was $3. I didn't want one that bad. Their jars of jelly looked like they had seen a few Saturdays. I hadn't been to the market in a very long time though, and as I said the spring vegetable season is winding down, so when it was at it's peak, there may have been more vendors. I'll just have to keep going and see what it's like during the year.

It opens at 10 a.m. and I went just after it opened, so it wasn't too hot, yet.

I am hoping to get to our Farmer's Market Saturday. It's in a round barn, so the heat isn't too bad. Somebody told me that they have organic fruit and veggies, which I want to try.

There are also other vendors inside and outside. It's very nice.

I love farmer's markets!!! I haven't been yet since I've had tomatoes, squash, and peppers from my garden. And my hubby's friend has a stand at the farmers market so I get new potatoes, and watermelon from him.

Yesterday, I stopped at a little tent stand a family had on the side of the road and got some more squash. They had cucumbers, but they were too big to be really good ones. I'm going to keep my eyes open when I travel around for work and see what I can find. The home grown food is just sooo much better!!! They had dewberry jelly that they had made this past weekend. I started to buy some, but we're all on diets, and I don't know that we would have eaten a whole jar. We're not real big on jellies.

Gayle, I was wondering how your garden worked out. If you posted about it recently, I'd missed it until now.
