How To Shop At A Farmer's Market

We all love farmer’s markets. And we were glad to come across the following list of great questions to ask the farmers so as to get the best out of them.

  1. When was this picked?

  2. Can you recommend a recipe?

  3. Is it organic?

  4. What are the farm’s sustainability practices? Do they rotate crops and utilize bio-diversity?

  5. Are those free range eggs?

Seems simple enough.
