New Farmer's Market in San Marcos!

Even though San Marcos is just 40 minutes north of downtown San Diego, it still has some of the charm of a smaller hometown. Now, we have a wonderful farmer's market in town every Wednesday from 3pm to 7pm. I had a chance to enjoy the market yesterday -- the first thing I noticed was the smell of freshly popped kettlecorn and the aromas wafting from the taco/quesadilla/tamale stand.

There was stands filled with so many tempting garden treats - fragrant strawberries, green beans, wax beans, cucumbers, beets, radishes, lettuce of all kinds, avocados, honey, carrots, tomatos. I also stands of gourmet cheeses, certified organic fruits and vegetables, beautiful sunflowers and mixed bouquets.

There was a clown creating all sorts of sculptures out of balloons, some candles and jewelry vendors, some exotic lotion displays.

Next time, I think I'll plan on having Wednesday night supper there! Join us for a wonderful treat of smells and tastes -- at Cal State San Marcos any Wednesday afternoon from 3 to 7!
