It’s Almost Prime Farmers Market Time in the St. Cloud Area

Farmers Markets.  I've apparently gotten to that age when I think this is one of the best things that happen in the Spring/Summer/Fall time of year.

Farmers Markets have everything fresh and delicious.  There's something great about buying produce from a farmers market as opposed to buying it in a grocery store.  It just seems fresher for some reason, even though some grocery stores take pride in the fact that they get fresh produce daily.

You can also get some great things like specialty things like maple syrup, baked goods, jellies, jams, honey and more!
