Market on the Move


Today I went to Markets on the Move. One of Heather's clients told us about it.  You pay $10 and get 60 lbs of fruit and vegetables. I was trying to attach their website but my iPad won't seem to let me do it.  I couldn't believe all the food you get.  There is a sign posted right before you pay letting you know what you will be getting.  It varies because of what's in season and what the local producers bring in. Today I got 5 giant eggplant, 3 spaghetti squash, 10 green peppers, 5 yellow peppers...a giant bag of mixed greens and tons and tons of green beans, Serrano and banana peppers and Roma tomatoes.  I was totally unprepared.  When I pulled up and got out to get in line I looked around and everyone had wagons and pull carts and laundry baskets....I had nothing...luckily they give you boxes but it's not exactly easy to go through a line and drag boxes when one gets full.  And did I mention Heather couldn't make it but I paid $10 for her as well so I actually had to get 120 lbs of veggies!! I'll know better next time! 😊
