So far, I’ve been to the Farmers@Firehouse and Oakland markets. F@F was the source of a large sack of assorted cherries (Queen Annes, Sours, and Bings) for me last week, but I got to the Oakland market too late to score some of the wonderful strawberries co-author April bought. Despite living on the Southside, I haven’t made it to the local farmers market on Carson, though several of my neighbors absolutely love it.

Happy marketing!
