Produce that you purchase at your local farmer's market has often been picked within 24 hours of your purchase. This freshness means that not only does your food taste great but the nutritional value is at its peak. In addition, you will also find that there is a greater variety of produce that you do not always find in the grocery store because the farmer does not have a high-yield demand so is free to try small crops of various fruits and vegetables. My favourite find is purple carrots!
