Farmers Market Beauty

August is an awesome time to visit the farmers market. Everything is in full harvest and really showing off. I go almost every weekend but yesterday was particularly colorful. I’m always amazed at the colors nature offers

Peaches are in season right now

This stand always has the best tomato selection. I got a small basket of heirloom variety for $5.00

So many colors and so much to choose from I could barely decide

I couldn’t pass these up without buying one

I was the happiest about these:

What is your favorite summer vegetable?

    Wow. That market looks amazing. Tomatoes are by far my favorite summer vegetable, but what I love most about summer is that there are so many veggies to choose from and they are all so fresh. Thanks for sharing your pics!

      Is that a name for eggplant? I was amazed at the different hues and sizes. I would like to learn to cook some of the small white ones….

    Isn’t it wonderful the quality of produce you can find?! I love how seasonal food helps dictate what we eat for dinner.
