Pre-Fall at the Ferry Building



A few weeks ago, I met up with twiend (twitter + friend) and fellow food blogger Rene from Epic Baker to check out the SF Ferry Building Farmers' Market for the first time.  I have to say, I was blown away by the size of the market and the number of people there--by the end, my head was spinning and I could barely remember what stands were where and from which I'd seen what.  I'll definitely have to go back a few more times before I'll be able to keep everything straight!








Isn't the color on these carrots amazing?

I hope you all are enjoying the summer-to-fall transitions at your farmers' markets as much as I am!  the colors!  the abundance of late summer fruits and early autumn root vegetables!  the sunshine and the people!   ~ Have a wonderful weekend!  You can bet that I'll be farmers' market hopping when I'm not working.  ;-P

  3. Lovely shots, Steph! I especially like the apples (as I've said), grapes, and carrots. I'm looking forward to seeing the fall produce here as well. It's been far too long since I've been to the farmers market :X.

    @Nicole: I'm so with you there--love visiting markets when I'm on vacation. I feel like that's one place where you truly see the heart of the culture.

    @Liren: we should meet up at the Ferry Building market at some point! :-)

    @Xiaolu: tsk tsk! I'm such a farmers market addict that I can't bear not going to at least one each week, even if I have a packed fridge at home! I just like the atmosphere.

    @Where My Heart Is: Thank you! :-)
