We LOVE the Farmer's Market here (we go to the Little Italy one). The farmers we frequent know us now and often treat us to extra eggs or a special item...you know like beef heart and chicken feet. We are the best egg customers at one stall and I was called "hard core" at the meat farmers, because I obviously bought enough to last the month. As she put it, most people don't buy all their meat straight from the farm and she said it with a thanks.
My helpers love to come and buy flowers and often ask for other special items like purple artichokes or fresh figs or honey sticks. It's always an adventure. I love being connected in this way to where our food comes from. Here's a
feature (pg 24-26) on the folks who grow the eggs, chicken and rabbit that we get!
