The Benefits of buying from local farmer's markets
I discuss some of the local farmer's markets in my town and the benefit of buying directly from the farmers that grow your food. I also share my week's CSA share.

Farmers Market Finds
I share my experience at the Boulder's Farmers Market and all the goodies I bought. I talk about the importance of supporting our local farms and some of their practices to ensure safe food for us. I link back to Small Farm Revolution's blog on her post about the local farmers markets where she details the importance of buying local.

Love Farmers Markets
Although, sometimes a bit more expensive, farmers markets offer superior products. The fruits and vegetables are almost always fresh in season items that are superior in flavor, color, texture and nutrients than their mass-marketed supermarket counterparts. The meat I purchase at my local farmers markets are always raised by farmers how care about the product they sale, they are hormone free, antibiotic free and almost always pasture raised.
