Week Four: The Farmers Market

Sorry to all those who were expecting this week's post to be on time. School has been a little more demanding lately and unfortunately my studies trump my blog :-/...
Anywho, this week I want to talk about the Farmers Market at Minnetrista! Why? Because it's a great place to get fresh, cheap, and quite delicious vegetables. So unless you think you can beat 10 baby Summer Squashes for $1, you'd better listen up. As you may or may not have read last week, fresh, organic veggies can be very good for you and this market is the perfect place for them. Not only are they fresh, they're also local, which means less pollution from shipping and more support for our community (which needs all the support it can get!).

Here's a link to their website, outlining some basic information such as time and place:

It's a great atmosphere whether you go Saturday or Wednesday. I've been several times and it's a lot of fun to walk around and see all the vendors and what they have to offer. Sometimes I'll go with friends and that's even better! It makes for a great way to kick off your Saturday and your week of eating delicious vegetables ;-)
And for all you who don't live here in Muncie, I would strongly encourage you to check out the famers market in your area!
