My Farmer’s Market Haul

Written By Simona Iancu

Saturday morning farmer’s market haul!! 🍎🥬🍑🫐🥒 I’ve been making an effort to get all my produce from a local farmer’s market since there’s so many in California! Getting as many groceries from local farmer’s is better imo than from a large grocery store for a few reasons:

1. Local farmers typically use fewer pesticides and chemicals than big companies
2. They use agricultural methods that are more environmentally friendly, which is not only great for the earth but for you too, because less crowded crops means more nutrient dense fruits & vegetables!
3. You’re supporting local farmers!

What I got:

  • gold chard

  • squash blossoms (never tried but excited to try these out)

  • shishito peppers

  • figs

  • strawberries

  • peaches

  • apples

  • zucchini

  • dino kale

  • tomatoes

  • zucchini

  • shiitake mushrooms

  • blackberries

  • lemon cucumbers (never tried these either!)

  • potatoes


Hope you have a great day! 💛
