Cooking with Auden: Farmers Market

We love going to the farmers market and try to go at least once a week. There is nothing like seeing all the fresh fruits and vegetables displayed on tables. The variety of options is great and the chance to get to meet the people who actually grow the food is wonderful. You get to see all kinds of produce that would never make it into the supermarket. It is also a great place to take kids. Most of the farmers are very friendly and are more than willing to give a sample or two.

Here Auden is checking out the purple colored string "magical" string beans. When was the last time you saw those at the Jewel?

We also picked up a few plants to try growing ourselves. This is purple basil.
