~ Lens-Artists Challenge #360: Found at the Fair/Market


This week Anne-Christine invites us to share photos from Farmers’ markets, fairs, carnivals or other summer memories. With very hot weather this past week, I didn’t make it to our county fair, and the next similar opportunity is after this coming week-end. Consequently, I decided to feature the one Farmers’ Market that is nearby and open most of the year. When I visited at 10:30 in the morning the temperature was already 83°F (28.3°C).

I had hoped to get some corn, but I was just a day or two early. There’s plenty of farm fresh produce inside protected from the heat.

They also sell a wide variety of preserves.

After taking my photos and drooling, I came home with fresh peaches, raspberries and seedless blackberries.

Today, the weather is seasonably cool with a little bit of rain, which we need badly. The berries were consumed by the end of the day I visited Bi-Zi Farm, and the peaches are just about ready to slice! Thank you to Leya for prompting me to visit a favorite Farmers’ market.

On your walk with life, please honor our earth, encourage dignity and share kindness. 🐾

    I understand if you don’t go out in that heat…it’s too much here as well – so no markets for me. But I greatly enjoyed yours from my cool computer room! The berries look delicious and – do the customers pick basil themselves?
    I had to go to your site to find your post! No pingback.

    Thank you, Leya. I need to get a new computer, since I’m unable to get updated software that supports the WordPress platform. That’s on my “to do” list for this upcoming week!
