Merced County Certified Farmer's Market

Saturday mornings are farmer's market mornings when we're in town.  The Merced Certified Farmer's Market has multiple locations on multiple days, but Saturdays fit best into our schedule.  The location on 19th & N downtown is open on Saturdays from 7 to 12.  Merced Farmer's Market link  This morning's purchases included yukon gold potatoes, peaches, arugula, butter lettuce, sweet corn, and rosemary & olive bread.  One of my favorite farms has the most delicious fresh figs and I was happy to hear there will be a second harvest starting next week.  The myriad opportunities to purchase fresh produce in the Merced area mean we are eating healthy, fresh, locally grown food for every meal.  And, as much as I love and miss the St. Paul farmer's market, it's fun to have this view while I shop:
