I like to get a general feel of the whole place before I visit the vendors.
"Pineapples? Hmm... something tells me their stuff might not be home-grown..." |
It's all about knowing who to buy from - who's got the freshest of the fresh, that kind of thing.
I spotted a table of nothing but peppers! Since Dave's from Texas, I thought we should bring some home to him - Mom thought maybe not.
"Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers..." |
I settled for saying that a few times - then came up with another idea of something for Dave. Check this out:
"Hmm..." |
I ordered him a couple tamales to go.
Dad stopped at this place for some tomatoes and zukes...
There was lots more to see, so we moved on.
Mmm... Kettle Corn! But wait! It gets better! This is what I was looking for!!! Check it out:
"I'd like 103 of these, please! ...and one for my bipeds, too!" |
That's right! The BEST, the juiciest, the sweetest watermelon in all the land! I think I ordered enough for all of us, so come on over!
"Let's try one or two of these, too!" |
I got extra stuff, in case you guys can make it. See you soon?

I cannot believe such a place exists in this world..where I can walk up (well wheeled in my stroller) and down rows and rows of beautiful fruits and vegetables. It must be called heaven!

ReplyDeleteWe've got a teeny tiny farmers market near us that we love to go too - but most of them are very commercial! We would love to go to one like yours.
