Farmer’s Markets are becoming more and more popular. Have you visited one yet? If not, here’s five reasons you should:
1. Support local small businesses and farmers.
By shopping at a farmer’s market you are supporting the small business owners in your local economy. Whether they’re making crafts, growing gorgeous fruits and veggies, cutting fresh meats or baking up delicious breads; you’ll find that there is a lot of talented people in your local area.
2. Fresh finds!
Fresh veggies, fresh grass-fed meats, fresh baked goods…always taste better and are better for you! You can always ask each vendor where their product comes from. For most of them it is right out of their back yard.
3.Gorgeous local blooms.
These peonies came straight from a local field, full of 300 other blooming Peony Plants…can you imagine how beautiful that is?!
4.Fun in the sun.
Many local farmers markets have live music, food trucks and events for the kids. Making hitting one on a Saturday or Sunday morning a fun event for the whole family.
5. Education
Shopping at a farmer’s market helps you know what produce is currently in season in your local area! Also, many of the farmers love to share what they know about their products and their favorite recipes!
We love shopping at farmer’s markets, but how about you? Are you a fan? Do you visit one often?
