Farmer’s Market

Farmer’s Markets are so colorful. Fresh flowers. Fresh veggies. Fresh fruit. I mean really fresh, and much of it organic. The Farmer’s Markets I have attended here are nothing like the ones I went to in Provence, where they are day-long events. One can be found every day within a 10-20 mile radius. But here, I have the 1/2 day one in Cambria on Fridays.

See that 8-ball zuccinni? I bought that. Simple way to prepare is to slice, sprinkle with freshly ground salt and pepper and sauté in olive oil. When done, sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Delish.


Don’t you just love all the colors at a Farmer’s Market?

  • Photos are great! Our farmer's market is one day a week 1/2 day, also. They set it up under bright red canvases on an old brick street. I love to go.

  • Now thats what I call a 'real' farmers market.

    Unlike the fieasco's held here on the Monterey Peninsula (downtown, not up at the college) that are nothing more than glorified craft shows with some fruits and veggies brought in by local Salinas growers. Over priced and unripe. Pacific Grove's farmers market is by far the worst of them all.
