While visiting family in upstate New York, we made our way to their local farmer's market. Bursting with August's harvest, there were plenty of fruits and vegetables to choose from. Communities committed to hosting farmer's markets mean we all benefit with fresh from field to table produce, and we support our hard working local farmers.
Late summer flowers are great for drying
Yum - green beans!
Baskets spilling with fresh picked eggplants
Home made root beer and pure maple syrup
Colorful peppers!
Purple peppers?
Lush and juicy tomatoes
Cukes - just the right size for putting up
Corn picked that morning.
These melons are perfect. This kind of bounty won't last too long. So put it in your planner to stop in to your local farmer's market. And take the whole family!
