every sunday morning feels like christmas to me. i don't know what it is about the farmer's market, but it just makes me so very happy. the bustling starts on main street at 9:30am and goes until 1pm, but trust me - getting there before 10 is well worth it to get the best fruits and veggies. i usually start with a cup of groundworks organic coffee before i begin to mosey through the market.

depending on the season, you can find anything from giant white nectarines and cherry tomatoes to fabulous squashes and fingerling potatoes...and almost everything is totally organic and pesticide-free! i try to buy most of my fruits and vegetables at the farmer's market. they also have the best flowers. not only are they gorgeous, but they are inexpensive (i usually only spend $10-$15 on a big bouquet).

don't worry about hitting up all the right booths - the market is shaped like a giant circle so you can easily wander the entire loop without missing a thing. oh, and, like me, you can taste everything along the way, if you're so inclined.
