Joyrolla's Guide to: Rocking Farmers Markets like a Boss
- Start with the most popular / in-season produce. Start by Prioritizing sought-after produce like Blueberries and cherries, known to vanish within the first hours
- Early bird gets the worm. Arrive early to secure your pick and avoid the rush, claiming the cream of the crop before the crowds arrive.
- Support your local economy. When you buy from a farmers market, you're supporting your local economy, discovering locally sourced treats. This helps to keep jobs in your community and ensures that you're getting the freshest, most delicious food possible.
- Ask questions. Engage with farmers (they are lovely!), inquire about their cultivation practices, and uncover the unique stories behind their produce.
- Don't be afraid to sample the goods. Sampling is encouraged - it's the perfect opportunity to explore new tastes and discover hidden gems.
- Bring your own bags or cart. Eco-conscious shopping is key! Bring your reusable bags, produce bags and shopping cart to align with the sustainability ethos of farmers markets.
- Bring cash + card. Some farmer's markets don't accept credit cards, so it's best to bring cash with you (just incase).
Shop local, shop well.
