Good morning!
Do you have a local farmers' market? Do you visit? What do you like to buy?
We have a farmers' market that's open on Wednesdays. Pre-Covid, we went often. When I was working, I'd walk over during lunch with my bag, buy what I needed for the week, and then walk back to work. Mainly fresh produce, but there's a stand that sells hard-cover books for $5 and a couple books would find their way into my bag. Always a hot sausage sandwich, sometimes a soft pretzel, usually filled cookies for the guys at work. Unfortunately, it is under new ownership and the new owners want to be open on Saturdays, too. Many of the vendors can't be there on Saturdays because they have prior commitments at Saturday markets elsewhere and it's caused a huge stink with the new owners. We rarely go anymore, simply because of the way the new owners are doing things. It's rapidly turning into a flea market with lots of junk-type stuff. It's a shame because the market was THE place to go on Wednesdays. Best hot sausage anywhere. Really nice produce, nice meats, etc.
What about you? Do you have a farmers' market and do you go?
