Why shop at Farmers’ Markets?
Farmers markets offer your family access to fresh, locally grown foods, for starters. That may be one of the best reasons, but there are many more. Farmers’ markets have fruits and vegetables at the peak of the growing season. This means produce is at its freshest and tastes the best. The food is typically grown near where you live, not thousands of miles away or in another country. Shopping at farmers’ markets also supports your local farmers and keeps the money you spend on food closer to your neighborhood.
Something new
Farmers markets feature what’s at the peak of season in your region, so you can often find your favorites, along with new items that will stretch your culinary imagination. Have you ever tasted gooseberries or rhubarb?  Seen a Brussels sprout stalk? Slurped a donut peach? These are some things you might find (and be able to sample!) at your local farmers market. Who knows, maybe you will discover some new favorites!
Psst…learn the farmer’s secret
On market day, farmers love to share their secrets. First among them are tips on how to prepare fresh offerings, so if you need to know what to do with kohlrabi or are looking for something to bump up your tomato salsa, just ask.
Bring the kids!
Farmers’ markets are kid-friendly. Let your kids pick out something new to try. Then, let them help prepare a meal or choose a snack based on what caught their eye.
There may still be some changes to all market structures this year, so make sure you visit the links so you can see if the process changes throughout the season.
