Farmers Market!

Oh how I love farmer's markets! We gave the St. Paul one a try today and wow! Lets just say, it is giving Pikes Place a run for it's money :) Look at all this great stuff!

Cheap, fresh vegetables...
My personal favorite, the beautiful flower bouquets for $4....
Seriously, where else can you get this much fresh produce for only $20?!

Do you guys shop at farmer's markets? Which one is your favorite?

So colorful! I'm jealous! There is a little farmer's market in Puyallup on Saturday's that I sometimes go to but they don't have a ton of great stuff...more crafts than produce. Though I did get some nice strawberries! Those flowers are gorgeous!

What a haul! We're so jealous.
We have a small "salsa garden" and had our first ripe tomatoes this weekend.
There's a small farmer's market in our town on Wed evenings but we have to drive further to get to a big one.

Looks so tasty. My all-time favourite farmers' market is the one outside of Honolulu - the fried green tomatoes are incredible. My local farmers' market isn't a bad substitute (although no pineapples).

Nice! Which one did you go to? I love my local farmer's market - it's on Saturday mornings. Actually, that would be another fun meet up for us as they typically have live music and there are a bunch of food trucks, etc.

I spend way less on produce shopping at the Farmer's Market. Besides hitting up the one by me, I usually go to the one that is downtown on Nicollet Mall on Thursdays. Great deals!

Love it! The Madison one is hard to beat, apparently its one of the best in the country? So unfortunately I haven't been to any since we moved to Phoenix. I need to get on that. Looks like you got quite the haul!
