Farmer’s Markets

Farmer’s Markets are a great way to reduce our grocery costs and at the same time improve the quality of our food. While the costs of produce are going up, due to the price of transport, I noticed that the farmer’s market prices are maintaining at current levels.

“Buying Local” doesn’t mean buying from our local supermarket,where produce is often trucked in from across the country, spending hundred’s of dollars on packaging and fuel.

“Buying Local” means reducing our “carbon foot print”, when we support our local farmers, and their families, with our purchase.

When we buy local, we have the opportunity to create relationships with our local farmers about their growing or grazing methods, and learn about the variables and parameters of particular crops and seasons.

Our local Franklin Farmer’s Market is a wonderful mosaic of a full service market. Organic & free range meats, honey, eggs, candles, soap, milk and of course fresh produce, grace the vendor’s booths. Bring the kids! Bring the dogs! Wonderful music. Great community.
