Peaceful happy dreams to you!

And the delicate colors of the flowers in the picture above the photo of dill weed are so lovely.
CaliforniaPeggy
(156,586 posts)The colors always grab me.
They might be radish sprouts; I'm not sure. I know the guys who sell their micro greens and I love the textures and mix of greens in those.
So glad you enjoyed!

I especially love the fresh dill.
I hope that you are feeling well. Sending hugs.

(156,586 posts)Those are micro greens; we used to call them bean sprouts.
I know the vendors who grow these and sell them at this market. We always have a lot of fun.

I just love flowers. I hope you brought home a bunch or two.
CaliforniaPeggy
(156,586 posts)I actually did bring home that giant bouquet that was at the end of the thread. A close friend who is also a vendor gave them to me, to thank me for being there today. She had missed me quite a lot! I was going to buy some produce, but she wouldn't take my money!
Those last photos were taken in my kitchen!

(4,514 posts)One of the first things I do when getting to a new location is Google "farmers markets near me".
We have driven over 35 miles from Livingston MT to Bozeman to go to their farmers market.
My wife and I absolutely love seeing what is available in different areas.
In 2018 we drove across Canada, and in Halifax, Nova Scotia saw the oldest and longest running farmers market in North America.
It is the "Halifax Seaport Farmers Market" with a history dating back to1750, and has been operating since then.
Now it is a HUGE indoor year around market.
Fascinating to see, and one of our favorite memories.
Thank you for your posts of farmers markets.

(156,586 posts)I enjoyed hearing about your travels and about your search for great farmer's markets. Sounds like a fun way to live!
I appreciate your kind words about my posts here. It's really fun for me and it brings good times to my DU friends.

(156,586 posts)Since I hadn't been in months, I really wanted to get there. Several friends were very pleased to see me. It was great.
That will be the last farmer's market for some weeks. Monday I'll undergo my surgery.
