While putzing around on Facebook the other day, I saw this lovely site pop up that allows you to search for local farmer’s markets in your area. When you sign up, you can choose to through Facebook, Twitter or the regular signup process where you enter all of your info.
Once you’ve signed up, you can search for farmer’s markets in your area. If you’re a farmer, rancher or food producer and would like to be promoted, you can even contact the site for promotion.
If you’re looking for a cheap way to purchase locally grown vegetables and fruit, as well as other items produced in your area, local farmers’ markets are the way to go. I’ve utilized them myself in the past and it’s a great way to save money and support local farmers/ranchers and food producers.
