Why Farmers Markets Are Worth the Trip

Shopping local supports small businesses, reduces your carbon footprint, and connects you with the people who grow and create your food. Plus, you can’t beat the taste and freshness of farm-to-table ingredients.


💡 Pro Tip: Bring reusable bags, some cash (not all vendors take cards), and an appetite—because you’ll want to snack while you shop.
