The Do’s and Don’ts of Farmers Markets

Happy almost Fall! If you're planning on going to a farmers market this season and if you're a newcomer, here are some do's and don'ts of the organic world!

The Do's:

DO take your time!

DO keep your hands clean...you're going to be touching and lot of produce that other people might buy. Make sure you keep it clean!

DO bring cash!

DO make nice with the farmers and growers!

DO bring your own bag. This ain't no grocery store!

The Don'ts:

DON'T bring your pet. Vendors don't like it when Buster eats all of their samples.

DON'T haggle. This is how people are making a living!

DON'T forget to sample things!

DON'T get there late! If you want the best quality products, you should try to get there as early as you can.

DON'T touch food that you don't intend to purchase. Farmers markets and vendors work hard to make sure their food is clean enough for someone to buy and eat.
