My purchases from the Salem, VA Farmers' Market Saturday, July 31, 2010

My youngest and I went by the Salem Farmers’ Market this afternoon and bought a bunch of stuff. We bought tomatoes from one vendor, cabbage, corn, and peaches from another, cucumbers, green peppers, and jalapeños from another one, and potatoes and green beans from a fourth vendor. We bought a Family 5 Pack of beef from Sparks Family Farms.

The 5 pack included a 3.12lb chuck roast, 1.48lbs ground beef, 1.27lbs stew beef, 4 ground beef patties, and 2 ribeyes that weighed a total of 1.25lbs. We bought soap from Mountain Scape Soap Company, and last, but certainly not least, we bought a cherry pie from another vendor.

After we finished at the farmers market, we ventured a couple of blocks east and bought hot dogs at the Ol Mule Hot Dog Company.
