I thought we had a thread on this, but I ran a search and couldn't find one. Mods, feel free to combine if I'm mistaken.

I stopped at our local Farmers' Market this morning on the way to work. I was there 90 minutes after it opened and it looked like a lot of produce had already been sold. I was disappointed with the number of farmers (maybe 10) and the lack of organic products. I also thought I saw a table of cheese, but it turned out to be soaps. Maybe I feel let down after experiencing an excellent farmers market where I lived in CA 10 years ago. It stretched for blocks and sold anything you could imagine - all highest quality and reasonably priced.

Best features: Peaches! Glorious fresh ripe local peaches. Heirloom tomatos. A few unusual varieties of squash and cucumbers. Corn, but I'm going to wait a week. At least it wasn't $10 a dozen.

Worst features: Politicians. It had an old fashioned feel, listening to local runners-for-office tout their qualifications to the crowd, but I can't stand politicians. Crafts. More tables selling handmade crap than vegetables.

How's your local Farmers' Market?
