While I continue to get caught up on things here is the farmers market haul from last week. I went light on veggies simply because I didn’t get a chance to plan meals for the week. Which is sometimes good because it forces me to get a bit creative use up everything. I found some…

Farmers Market 1/24/13
Pretty minimal farmers market run today. Almost didn’t go but am glad I did. Kale Green onions Carrots Avocado Pomello Cara cara oranges Blood oranges Pink lady apples Lemons And one item I couldn’t resist… a bag of very rip persimmons for $1. Not sure what I will do with them but I will have…
Farmers Market 1/3/13 & 1/10/13
The start of the new year is now past. Everyone is seemingly falling back into the routine of life, myself included. December was nuts. I didn’t make it to a single farmers market in the month of December. Part of me enjoyed the break from having to be at a set place at a set…
Farmers Market 5/24/12
Busy day at the market this morning. The change in seasonal offerings has people coming out in much higher numbers. I’m still staying away from the stone fruit though, still a bit early in the season. Added some purple into the mix baby eggplant and red onions. Also found a newer farmer that has a…
Farmers Market 5/3/12
Good day at the market despite not really having much of a game plan for things. So I went for a little of this and a little of that. Radishes are new this week and I was happy to find some green garlic. Citrus season is winding down fast so I only came home with…
Farmers Market 4/12/12
Much smaller haul this week. Lots of green! Cabbage English peas Asparagus Kale Green garlic Oak leaf lettuce (I think) I was happy to see a ton more english peas at the market. But after shelling them today I was greatly disappointed with the yield. Very small immature peas. I may have to hold back…
Farmers Market 4/5/12
A day late, I know! But I did get back to the market yesterday after being gone for nearly two weeks. It really did feel like I overbought but I didn’t. Instead I ended up splurging on 3 “new to me” items. Making up for the last couple of weeks? Maybe. Satsumas Guava (possibly green…
Farmers Market 3/8/12
Aside from the artichokes and citrus I didn’t have much of a plan for the market today. I think I came out with a pretty good variety this week. I noticed a few new items this week, specifically guava and taro root, that I chickened out in purchasing. But thats what a google search and…
Farmers Market 2/23/12
Thursday was such a bright and abundant day at the market. I truly do think it was due to the sun shining. The highlight was finding these awesome rustic/gnarly carrots and a purple cauliflower. I’m already thinking the cauliflower is going to be used for a soup that is heavily laden with goat cheese despite…
Farmers Market 2/18/12
Wasn’t able to make it to the Thursday morning market but instead went this morning. I am definitely blessed to live in a very small proximity to quite a few farmers markets that are open year round. While I was at the same location as the thursday morning market, it truly was a different market….
Farmers Market 2/9/12
I skipped last weeks market run. While it mostly came down to being tired from the days prior, I thought I might be able to stretch what was left for another week. I’ve not been happy with the amount of food waste I have had lately so my laziness was a good push use up…
