Farmers Markets

 
To get the best quality food, the absolute best way, it's probably best to grow it yourself. Yet many of us don't have the time, space or energy so the next best option is to get it fresh from people you know.
This page will list some favorite farmers' markets and some favorite vendors at those markets.
Know a good market and/or vendor you'd like others to know about? Then please email with farmers market in subject line and it'll be added to this list.
 
This list has just been started, so watch for more info and details as they will be added and updated regularly.
