My sister invited Melanie and I to join her on a trip to the Milton Farmer's Market. Well this was no 'in the parking lot of a mall' type of market, no! This was a 'close main street downtown' type of market and what an awesome experience!
It was filled with farmers and local producers of gorgeous food and tons of people and wagons and dogs! It was alive and kickin' and full of delicious, fresh and tasty produce. Check out what we found!
I love to buy local produce and support the local farmers and economy. Well in the last weeks of August, this is when all of nature's best is available! It's great to go with my sister because we get to buy big quantities of things like blueberries or potatoes and split it later when we get home! Check out the peaches...
Tomatoes, little cucumbers, potatoes.
This cool looking bunch of zucchinis called 'pattipan' they look like tops and taste just like zucchinis!
Look at these gorgeous sunflowers... and the bee!
.. and these gorgeous colours...
... and these gorgeous blooms, they look like fireworks exploded! Did I mention I love flowers?
Some corn... great to split a dozen with your sister!
Little fingerling potatoes in all colours!
One of Melanie's favourite summer veggies... string beans!
But it's a great time to learn all about flowers.
The little botanist and her mom, learning, discovering...
...and most importantly, smelling!!!! Roses smell so fresh and sweet, right Stephanie?
Yup, she says wearing her 'Chicks Rule' shirt... I am done, what's next ma tante Chantal? Well, you gotta wait and see for the next installment of the Farmer's Market Amazing Adventure in a few days!
