'Tis the Season for Summer Markets!
I have always loved going to the local farmers markets! There is something about meeting the farmers that grow my food that makes my heart smile!
Ever since I developed my serious nut allergy, it has become especially important to me to know where my food comes from. It's a huge advantage being able to talk to the farmers directly about their practices.
Aside from my allergy, food is very important to me. These days markets seem to be featuring tones of organic food which makes the experience even more enjoyable! I checked out the Langley farm market yesterday and found a huge selection of organic cheeses, organic fresh baked breads, organic chicken and turkey and the most amazingly fresh veggies and herbs picked the morning of the market, my fridge has never smelt so amazing! There was also a wonderful selection of fresh cut, local flowers. The bouquets were only $5! The live music was the frosting on the cake!
Follow the link below to find some of the local farmers markets that are happening this summer. I hope you have a chance to check some of them out! Who wants to be inside the grocery store on a beautiful sunny day anyway?! I hope you enjoy the markets as much as we do!
