Farmer's Market ~ A Must Do Event on Saturday Mornings in Redding, CA

We try and we try to get to the Farmer's Market on Saturday Mornings. We never make it every Saturday, but we try. There are vendors there that we love and getting the fresh vegetables is a great treat.....tomatoes are wonderful right now and you always find something new.

This time we had a local restaurant giving cooking lessons and tastings. The name of the restaruant is Rivers and we intend to check them out. The Chef was funny and had the audience laughing. I know how to make a Bechamel myself and that was what he was teaching....he was a good teacher. He is the chef and we were charmed. I'll provide the info at the bottom of the post.

This time we had something new to me and I thought it was pretty cool. GetBees.Net. You get your own BeeHive for your own backyard and they service it. I thought this was a rather unique and wonderful way to learn about the Bees. What a wonderful family project.

We had our organic delivery service which I use. They deliver organic produce to your door every week or every other week. Churn Creek Meadow Organic Farm. I recommend their services. The have a variety of boxes to choose from.

There are usually artist performing and pottery, Organic Vegetables, Indian condiments and breads.

Plants and flowers are also available.

For me the hit of the day was the cooking class. That was different and now I have a new restaurant to try.

Here are some more photos of the event and the vendors that were there.

It's always fun with lots of good thing to sample and try.

Shopping is so much more fun at the Redding Farmer's Market!

Our own local Bee Keepers bring their local honey. Each is unique.

Indian condiments, breads and foods.

From The Hearth make wonderful breads of all flavors and types. A special treat for us.

Beautiful tomatoes this time of year. I stocked up.....tomatoe everything this week.

Pick up your special bouquet of flowers to brighten the home. I always bring home flowers!

There's so much more than we could show here. Gourds and pottery to a cowboy singer. It a wonderful and diverse event each and every Saturday morning near the new Redding City Hall. The sky was blue and we had a good time.
