FARMERS MARKET

It is Farmers Market time.  There are numerous reasons to go:
- Great deal on mushrooms and other items.  The plate of shitakes was only $3.
- Support local farmers and businesses.
- A place to go for a bike ride.
- To get a buckwheat crepe.
- To buy food that you know the origin of.
- Good music
- To get things like butter lettuce with roots, morels, mushroom logs, plants and herbs.
