Farmer's Markets (Hints)

By Hklbrries

Dear Heloise: I love to get up early on Saturday mornings to check out local farmer’s markets. Here are some hints I have learned through the years:

Go early: It’s cooler earlier in the day, and you will have plenty of items to pick and choose from.

Bring reusable bags: Reusable bags are better for the environment and keep sellers from handing out plastic bags.

Bring small bills: Have plenty of dollar bills, fives and tens. Most items are under $10, and if you can give exact change, it is greatly appreciated.

Hope other readers can benefit from these hints. — A.R., via email

I’m sure they will, and readers, if you have not been to one, you are missing out! Visit the website www.localharvest.org, put your city or ZIP code in and see where all the markets are in your area! Nothing beats a tasty, homegrown fruit or veggie.
