Farmers’ Market Fever


There’s something about farmers' markets that just scream summer. Nowhere else can you see the evidence of the summer season than the piles of berries, bushels of veggies, and fragrant flowers that cram the markets at this time of year. Even Seattle, which lags behind the rest of the West, is heaven right now with all of the fruits and vegetables that we see for only 2-3 scant months each year. My favorite Seattle market has to be the Ballard Farmers’ Market, which I visited this Sunday and documented for your viewing pleasure. I got all of the ingredients necessary to make this delicious-looking quiche. Hopefully these photos will inspire you to visit a market near you!


PS: My favorite California farmers’ markets, discovered during the time I lived there:
