Looking for something to do this summer?
Check out your local farmer's market. A farmer's market is place where local farmer's can market their seasonal crops directly to you and there is usually a variety of local crafters offering their wares as well.
This is the freshest produce that you will find, because these folks raise it, pick it & bring it straight to the market. There is no middle men and the produce hasn't been handled by a dozen people before it gets to you.
The vendors you meet here are small business owners. They live in your own community and are the backbone of our country.
This is my second season at the ASU Farmer's Market in Jonesboro, Arkansas. I just love the tight knit community feeling here. It is safe, clean, and family & pet friendly - a great place to introduce your children to where their food comes from.
Farmer's market are usually held on Saturday mornings and some items sell out fast. So, be sure to come early for the best selection!
Join us this summer at the farmer's market. Support your local, small businesses. Eat fresh, healthy, & local!
