Saturday mornings we're up early for we head out the door before 8 to our Farmer's Market. It's a rite from May through October (and on Tuesday afternoons as well). It's on the plaza between our Historic Fort and our downtown -- a perfect place for a Farmer's Market.
Produce, meat, eggs, plants, bread, jams and jellies, honey, baked goods abound at our market. And over the years, the vendors are now friends.
This Saturday, my market basket . . .
Vegetables and fresh eggs as well.
For meals until Tuesday -- beets, Swiss chard, onions, snow peas and a golden cheddar cauliflower (I passed by the purple one but would that not make a wonderful vegetable tray -- a purple and a yellow cauliflower with a good vegetable dip?)
During summer, we always eat well at Linderhof.

Oh how fabulous. Fresh from the garden always tastes sooooooooo good, so much better than the store. Hugs, Marty
I love Soulard Farmers Market in St Louis...too many choices!
You have some great gardeners/farmers supplying your market. Looks great!
I can honestly say that I have never seen a cauliflower like that, what a treasure. Is there a different taste?
BTW, read your class post as well, wonderful idea for a class. How would you like to come to my area and do a cooking/herb class in the Fall?

We are three weeks away from the opening of our local farmers' market. I'd love to have your basket of vegetables sitting on my kitchen counter right now!!
Best,
Bonnie
We do the same. Today , however, there were not many farmers or people...so we did not get our fresh eggs. I did get some things. I think the cold, rainy weather must have stopped some?
Beautiful basket full of beautiful veggies!
Martha,
After our annual trip to the cemetaries...we arrived @ 12:15 pm to your town! Missed the Market this time...will hopefully make it next time we're in town! Hopefully, we can take Dad & Momma Marge...they truly, enjoyed it last year!
Fondly,
Pat
