MARKET TO MARKET:
Fresh produce from Orchard of Concklins || Photo by Joanne Louis-Paul
Farmers markets give us more than a place to shop. They are transports to simpler times that we may or may not remember. Times when everyone knew the local bread-baker and candlestick-maker. Locals and urban weekenders alike make trips to them a highlight of their day and it’s not hard to see why.
There’s something special about taking home fresh produce provided by real people you can talk to and then creating a delicious meal made from your daily haul. Farmers markets bring a sense of community and nurture to our nourishment.
The Hudson Valley boasts a farmers market in almost every town. This week, we've featured the Nyack and Piermont Farmers Markets and their vendors. Click on their names to learn more about them.
Happy Shopping!
