i am now a huge fan of the farmers market. i know i should have gone out there a long time ago but last weekend when i went it was much different. a friend of mine was participating in the Race for the Cure that weekend and another friend and i joined her team in support. it is a tradition each year to go to the farmers market restaurant to have some lunch then paruse the market for next weeks dinner. this was my first week trying to cook for myself in hopes that i would avoid eating out all week. it really worked and now i’m dying to go back to the market this weekend.
so in looking online at the farmers market information, i found this nifty little chart to tell me what fruits and veggies are in season and what i might expect to find when i head out there again. i think it will turn out to be very helpful since my thumb is not nor has never been green.
the raleigh farmers market is open year-round. monday – saturday they are open from 5a to 6p. sundays they are open from 8a-6p.
i highly recommend the farmers market restaurant also. the food could not get any better than that.
