Yippee Skippee!

Like a shopaholic the day before a new Bloomie's opens, I am one excited little girl! Tomorrow marks the opening of the fall Famer's Market at Town and Country. The main grower at this FM is McClendon's Select--the kind of family-run (though large-scale) operation where both father and son (farmers and business entrepreneurs alike) are both on-site to answer questions about growing methods and greet friendly shoppers. This is such a great market--excellent prices (hasta la vista, Whole Foods!) and beautiful produce (they supply their goodies to top valley chefs).

And just in time! The weather should be cool, breezy and very, very autumn-like.

You can read more about Bob McClendon here or check out the farm blog here.

I also blogged about this last year. You can read that here.
