The Farmers Market



When Raleigh and I lived in Buckhead, we made a tradition of attending the Peachtree Road Farmers Market. Each week we enjoyed Dancing Goats coffee and something sweet from a local bakery. Our neighbors had a booth each week and sold fresh pesto. If you love pesto, check out their website for some great recipes using pesto at Hopes Garden. It was a fun tradition and we looked forward to our Saturday morning outing.

Since moving to Alpharetta last July, we have not attended a local farmers market...until now. I discovered that there is a farmers market each Saturday from 8am to noon. Raleigh and I had lots of fun walking around and enjoying the summer air. We bought a basil plant and 4 ears of corn. I also had a glass of fresh squeezed lemonade and Raleigh had a cup of coffee. Although I didn't purchase any this week, there were beautiful fresh flowers that would brighten any home.

We are excited about continuing our tradition supporting local vendors.
