Farmer's Market Fare
Minnesota boasts the second highest growth rate of farmer's markets in the nation this year. The number of farmer's markets in Minnesota grew 61% over last year. The trend toward buying local, sustainable, and organic produce, continues to support this upward trend.
Woolley's very own, Chef Peter, will be hosting a free cooking class on utilizing farmer's market fare in your culinary creations. Join us tomorrow at 3pm for his demonstration.
Then, take your newfound skills to the market! If you don't already have a neighborhood farmer's market that you shop, the Minnesota Farmer's Market Association has a wonderful directory of farmer's markets in the state: http://www.mfma.org/memberdirectory.php.
You'll be amazed at what a diamond in the rough your local farmer's market can be! And by shopping locally, you will be sustaining growers and businesses right in your own community.
