Farmers Market goodness



The Best Man and I headed off to the local Farmers Market very early this morning. We were hoping to do a few garage sales as well but alas, there weren't any worth considering so I came home with my purse only lightened by the purchase of loads of veggies! 
And it was quite a haul - indeed it all looked so good I had to take a few pics to record the goodness. A lot of it is organic or at least unsprayed, although the apples pose a bit of a dilemma. A lovely old farmer sells them off the back of his truck and while they aren't organic they are local. The problem is that he wont sell them to me un-bagged - no they must come in their little plastic bags so he knows I'm getting the right amount! He has delicious apples and the price is very good but I'm left with bags with little holes so I can't use them for anything that needs hole-less bags!! 

Any ideas?

  2. Brussel sprouts, my favorite! No ideas on the bag, unfortunately. I do hate that, too.

  3. Hi Evi, I've stumbled across your blog and while four year old wants his brekkie, I've kept reading!! Bad Mummy!

    Bags - what if you took yr own cloth bags and after you bought the apples, put them in yr bag and kindly returned the plastic bag??

    Have a nice day :)
