Farmer's Markets are a dying breed. It's sad too. Where else are we going to be able to find locally grown, organic fruits and vegetables? After going to the Decatur Farmers Market, I realized how interesting they could be.
This market was different in that it wasn't the fruit and vegetable stand that you might think of. This place had meats, cheeses, spices, freshly baked breads, and even a deli! It was, for all intensive purposes, a super farmer's market. And that's exactly what we need. We need a place that has the look, price, and convenience of a Walmart, but the connections, quality, and safety of a farmer's market. We need to know where our food has come from; know that it's safe and healthy. Unfortunately, the farmer's market is the only venue we have left, and they're dying out.
That's why it's so important for us to shop at places like these. After all, isn't it important to know who's in your kitchen?
