I love farmer’s markets. They’re great places to get fresh, local produce that is usually free of a lot of wasteful plastic packaging that characterizes your average grocery store. After a couple weeks of not being able to go to the farmer’s market, I finally went today. I got a lot of good stuff, so I decided to add another post to my farmer’s market series. Here’s what I got today:

• Cauliflower (For lentil dal)
• Cabbage (For homemade sauerkraut)
• Bell pepper (For bell pepper leek quiche)
• Figs
• Italian heirloom onions
• Persimmons
• Broccolini
• Yellow zucchini (For ratatouille)
• Avocados
• Heirloom cucumbers
• Basil (For homemade pesto)
• Garlic
• Watermelon
• Apples
• Heirloom tomatoes
• Thompson grapes

What about you? Do you go to your local farmer’s market (if you have one)? If you want to find a farmer’s market near you, check out this website.
