It’s not too late to hit up the Farmer’s Market, in fact in Colorado this is thee time to hit the farmer’s market! Abundant, vine ripened tomatoes, summer squash and zucchini, onions, carrots and more await your culanary expertise at this growing market located in Acacia Park on the corner of Tejon and Bijou Streets.
The farm-to-table movement is really picking up steam, and Colorado schools are even leading the trend of cooking from scratch in the cafeterias. What better way to show your children how to eat healthy than to meet the person who grew the food. The Palisade peaches are amazing, and cherries should still be around. Apples will be coming soon, so even if you don’t have a lot of money to spend at the market, one morning and one piece of fruit can change childrens’ perceptions of where food really comes from.
