With Summer Just Around The Corner, Snohomish County Farmers Markets Open For The 2011 Season
Each Spring I begin to look forward to the opening of our local farmer’s markets. I love to have my own small organic vegetable garden, but I really LOVE heading to a market to buy such an incredible array of fresh veggies, fruits, honey, flowers, breads, cheese and so much more. We are so blessed in the Pacific Northwest. We have a moderate climate and a long season for crops. Snohomish county has an abundance of farms and I want to do my part to support our local farmers. Eating local not only makes for a healthier diet, but think of the gas and pollution saved when trucks are not having to bring our crops in from across the country. Don’t forget to grab your cloth bags before you head out.
