The Farmers' Market - Simple Abundance

Yesterday I visited one of our local farmers' markets with my daughter and grand-daughter.  There is something special about an outdoor farmers' market at the end of the season.  The weather is crisp, the crowds have subsided (especially mid-week) and the colour of the fall produce is rich and vibrant.  Many of the stands will close at the end of October so shopping outdoors for fresh local produce has an "enjoy it while you can" feel-good quality.
















If you hurry, you can still squeeze in a visit or two to your local farmers' market.  Buying local, meeting a farmer, enjoying a feast for your eyes as well as for your table.... what a great way to spend an afternoon.

Thank you for stopping by My Turquoise Kettle Life.

Have a bountiful day,

Sandra
