My Trip to the Farmers Market

What a wonderful weekend I've have! On Saturday, I went to a farmers market for the very first time. It was amazing and it certainty won't be my last trip. They had everything you could imagine from flowers and veggies to homemade jams and fair food. I thought it was so neat that they had many vendors selling foods and drinks you would normally see at the fair. Everything I saw was so fresh, grown right here in NC, and very inexpensive. I was looking at the prices of a few items that I normally get at my local grocery store and could not believe how much cheaper they were here. Being a farmer's daughter myself, I think that it's great to support local growers. North Carolina is currently tying to promote this and I love their new campaign, "Got to be NC, Agriculture". Here are a few pictures from my outing!

This is from when we first arrived, there were so many plants for sale outside. That's my boyfriend, wMd, we had to have some muscle just in case we bought a lot.

 Look at all the gorgeous flowers they had!

These are some of the beautiful flowers we bought. 

Look at these amazing bouquets they had for sale. If I wasn't on a college budget, I would buy some every week for my apartment. I love fresh flowers.

The strawberries I bought for only $3, they look so yummy! (Even after I left them in the car for a little too long.)

I think this trip had inspired me to grown some plants of my own. I wonder what kind I should try? What did you do with your weekend? Have a fabulous week!

Yours,
