Austin, I heart you!
I really love me some Saturday morning farmers market downtown at Republic Square Park.
Austin Farmers' Market is chock-full of freshest-produce tents & nick-nack booths.
The perfect spot for beautiful, sunny morning adventure & wanderings.
This place is a ball of excitement in itself for us food junkie's out there & it takes the edginess off some of the high-rises & buildings in downtown.
There's quite a variety of wares on offer.
From organic veggies, fruits & drinks to pickles, salsa & preserves to freshly butchered meat to hot fluffy popcorn made right in front of you.
Flour Bakery.
They bake the best breads in town, hands down.
Hippie, Peasant, Walnut, Sourdough, Multi-grain...just to name a few.
Crusty outside, airy, soft & chewy inside - the perfect canvas for pairing with just about anything!
If you haven't tried, give 'em a whirl.
And they sell out pretty fast so come a little early.
They also offer small, delicious pastries & smart tarts.
Fancy some of their breads & pastries?
Visit their website or find them here:
1) Farmers' Market - Downtown location: 4th & Guadalupe - every Saturday 9AM - 1PM
2) HOPE Farmers Market - East Austin: 5th & Comal - every Sunday 11AM - 3PM
Everything about this place reminds me why I love living in Austin - grass, trees, recycling, live music, bicycles, toddlers & picnicking families - the list goes on and on.
But what makes this the best farmers market in town is the sights & sounds of happy folks & families and happy dogs who come here. They represent the Austin ambiance that attracted everyone here.I can't think of a better way to spend a Saturday
Enjoying the warm & fuzzy feelings that come with shopping & buying & supporting your community.
I ought to do it more often.
