And the produce is always fresh and attractive. It's been a while since I went to a farmer's market.

Later on intermediaries gaining ground everyday was a bazaar. This killed quality of the produce and also we have been paying hefty price. And meanwhile poor farmers remained poor. So now again this concept is gaining popularity. We have one such called ATHAVADI BAZAAR in Akurdi . Eveey Sunday evening. We get fresh direct from farms and the sellers are farmers themselves. We get at quite a reasonable price. We get everything from fruits to freah vegetables. I love shopping in this weekly bazaar.

Also add to it the fact that the farmer gets to sell his own produce.sujata senguptahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13101153080266818022noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8019200127164306293.post-62766304390503156212015-09-29T18:24:19.641-07:002015-09-29T18:24:19.641-07:00So beautiful!

I know the super markets just about import everything all the year round, but I prefer to eat things when they are in season and less expensive.<br /><br />There is a farmers market held here once a month, but I struggle to get to it because of my work. I wish they would stand more often. Yours looks plentiful. <br /><br />Thank you for sharing.<br />Mariahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05322234219197041788noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8019200127164306293.post-35645574094374105632015-09-24T10:12:41.895-07:002015-09-24T10:12:41.895-07:00Like the way she plays the guitar with ease - Char...Like the way she plays the guitar with ease - CharlesAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
