How to Make the Most of a Farmer’s Market
| July 19, 2017
Experiment!
The farmer’s market is the perfect place for an intro to interesting fruits and veggies that may not be stocked in your local grocery store. It’s definitely harder to find tayberries, haskap berries, or knobbly heirloom tomatoes at Aldi or Kroger.
Often, the most interesting finds of the day are things that you’ve never heard of – hybrid fruits and veggies, a new kind of honey, or a unique cut of meat. These hybrids are often the result of farmers experimenting with new types of produce or growing methods, and there aren’t as many of these available as the traditional fruits and veggies, so make sure to snap them up as soon as you see them.
