Farmer's Market Needed

One part of this gardening experiment of mine was to get better quality food. After all, I don't think anyone can argue that fresher food, grown without pesticides and the like, is better for you. And hey, growing it should be cheaper than buying it.

However, my gardening efforts aren't paying off they way I want them to. I'll give them all another shot in the fall (which is actually the start of the "real" growing season here in South Florida) and hope to have learned a few things.

In the meantime, though, I still want better veggies and stuff. And that means - Farmer's Market. There is supposed to be one sort of near where I live, but it's one day a week. I've heard mixed reviews at best about it. I'd love to find some more, but so many of them are soooo far away, I'd burn as much gas as would be saved buying locally. 

I did find one that isn't close, but not so far as to be out of reach. I found a really nice one back in February, but I haven't returned. There's a possibility of going tomorrow with my awesome neighbor. Wouldn't that be awesome!

What are your thoughts on Farmer's Markets? Any good ones you know of? I will keep looking, because there has to be something closer. But so far... I'm heading north, lol.
