I wanted to talk about one more thing before I wrap
up…shopping at farmer’s markets.

I’m going  to give you some  insights you can use
immediately.

However-if you want more in depth information

I love my farmer’s market-and I love the idea of
supporting my local farms.  But if you’re like
me…there are times you have to watch your pennies.

Depending on the time of season, produce can be priced
high.

If budget is no problem for you-I have one thing to
say:  get to the market early!  If you’re there
before everyone else, you’ll have your pick of the
prime.

If you want to shop more frugally, read on.

Like I hinted at, prices fluctuate during the season.
Produce tends to be more expensive at the beginning
and end of the growing season.

What I recommend during these times is to be flexible
and look for less conventional food items, such as
Asian or lesser known heirloom fruits & vegetables.
Basically that which is less in demand.

The next thing to consider is showing up at the end of
the market day.  You’ll have to take your gamble on
what’s left in the bins.  But this is when sellers
are willing to lower their prices in order to unload
their goods.

If this is something you want to do on a regular
basis, consider spending  a set amount every time.
Say $15.  If you cultivate this kind of
relationship with a farmer, you’ll end up getting
lots of value for your money-and they’ll feel like
they’ve won too.

Like I said earlier-Healthy Urban Kitchen
goes much more into depth about farmer’s markets
-and everything else related to health & diet.
