This blog event celebrates farmers’ markets everywhere as much as the seasonal farm produce available in our corner of the world.
Have you been to market recently? What did you buy? What are the fruits, vegetables, meats or seafoods in season? What’s your favorite items to buy? Who’s your favorite vendor?
Your market may have a formal structure – a building with stalls upon stalls of produce available all week, or perhaps a street market on week ends, or those consisting of tables in street corners and available in the afternoons only.
As with most foodies, traveling means tailoring your trip around food, restaurants and markets. Why not share your photos of markets during those trips?
This event is open to all food enthusiasts, with or without blogs. The posts need not be wordy, but rather much like a photo essay. Share with us your posts on farmers’ markets you have recently visited.
Here are the rules:
1. Blog about a farmers’ markets you have recently visited. Post should include pictures. If you don’t have a blog, I can post them for you here. Only one entry per blog is allowed.
2. Link your entry to this page.
3. This is now a monthly event. Deadline for entries is the 15th of each month. Send your entries to:

We have a lot of Farmers Markets in San Diego and our Ocean Beach market has long been known as one of the best in CA. Nationally touring (and bi-coastal)folk music artists Coco & Lafe are living in OB now (from Vermont/Boston) and focus their efforts in specifically performing at FMs. Here’s their video press kit where they talk about why they love Farmers Mkts: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nYO2N2Pkt18
