So here’s the thing. I went to our local farmers market this past weekend – the first time it was warm enough to go – and scored some totally awesome finds. Awesome for Wichita that’s for sure.

You know I used to live in Portland Oregon where farmers markets took over entire college campuses and housed hundreds of vendors 5 of which sold nothing but strawberries. I had choices folks I had options. I was in produce heaven.
In Kansas we’re in the heart of the Midwest where farming is supposed to be our job but for some reason there aren’t that many farmers markets. It’s usually more of a scene of picked tomatoes and homemade trinkets. It’s rare to find great-looking carrots fresh herbs or beautiful piles of kale. Our markets just can’t compete with those on the coast.
But on the advice of local friends I headed to a market on the west side of town that boasted some of the freshest and largest varieties of produce I’ve ever seen in Kansas. I was so pleasantly surprised that I bought almost $20 worth of organic produce and have dedicated two entire recipes to my finds!
