Farmer's Market

Take advantage of the spring weather and take your kids to a Farmer's Market.  A Farmer's Market is a great opportunity to explain to your kids where fresh produce comes from.  It's also a great opportunity to explain why buying local produce is a good thing to do whenever possible.  I've taken my kids to the Farmer's Market the last two weekends and my 6 year old has already picked out her favorite vendor.  Of course it's the vendor that sells baked goods.  LOL!  Cookies and brownies!  No wonder this is her favorite vendor.  We also bought all of our tomato and pepper plants for our garden and planted them the next day.

As a bonus, you never know what you'll find at the Farmer's Market.  More on this in future posts!
