Farmers Market Finds and the Weekly Menu 6/21 - 6/26/10

Oh, it was such a perfect Sunday at the Kingfield Farmers Market this weekend. The sun was shining, the temps were pleasant, the Kevin Anthony & Twin Cities Playboys were entertaining us with wonderful music, the food was amazing & there was even a fire juggler.

You've inspired me to find a local farmers market in the panhandle of NE. I'm from Milwaukee, WI and miss my Saturday visits.
Thanks for this post!
Great photos.

I am seriously jealous. I live right by farm country California and our Farmer's Markets pale in comparison!

Thanks for commenting to my reader post. I resubscribed! :)

I love the potato and flax seed bread. We got it a week ago and it went fast. We ran in this past week to get the strawberries. I love the Kingfield market.
