Winter Farmers Market on Free Street

Went to the winters farmers market on free street that debuted Saturday. It will be open every Saturday at 10am. Scott and I went there in the morning but it was already mobbed by then, makes sense for its opening day.

As expected there were a lot of root veggies. Surprisingly, there were vendors offering olive oils, soy products like tempeh, and the good stuff like meats and eggs. I bought a bag of multi-colored carrots for $5 and roasted them, they were delicious.

To fit in I brought along my canvas tote (did anyone notice it was a Hannafor tote? *gasp*) so I “did my part”. We walked there too, so SUCK IT to those that drove in their earth-killers. I think I totally made up for the fast that I replaced all the CFLs in my house with regular bulbs because it is better on my eyes. For extra awesomeness, I threw out the perfectly working and lead-filled CFLs. Ok for reals, I am saving the CFLs for later use…but I really hate the orange/green glow they give off it makes me sick.
