Tennessee Farmers Market Extravaganza-

One of my favorite things to do on Saturday morning is visit the Farmers Market.  This is so relaxing and rewarding.  Living in Murfreesboro, TN, every Saturday our historic downtown square is a host to many local vendors who have brought the best of their produce to display.  They begin about 7 and go til noon thru September.  Sights you will see are many kinds and colors of squash, tomatoes and eggplant.  Just imagine the beautiful colors.  The sounds you hear are a young violinist playing, people scurrying by to get in line for peaches, blackberries and Blueberries and most importantly laughter. My favorite thing is to find someone selling cakes and cookies to snack on while I shop.  The best cake there is the Caramel...Yum... Going Green is also present with the shoppers making use of the recycle bags...we thank you local businesses for encouraging.

So, the next time you are in Murfreesboro or Nashville TN stop in at one of the markets you will not be disappointed.  Check out the websites :
