Summer begins in exactly one week and a day! One of the best
things about summer is fresh local produce. My mouth is already watering for
heirloom tomatoes, corn on the cob, watermelon, peaches, and Bing cherries. I
love to visit farmers’ markets and come home with bushels full of good things
to eat. One of the best markets in the valley is at Pioneer Park in Salt Lake
City. You’ll find produce, crafts and buskers there every Saturday until
mid-October, 8:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. There’s a Friday night traveling market in
Millcreek. You can find it at www.facebook.com/millcreekcommunitymarket/info.
Murray Park hosts a wonderful market Fridays and Saturdays from 9:00 a.m. to
2:00 p.m. There’s also a good one at Sugarhouse Park on Fridays from 4:00
to 8:00 p.m. The best time to hit a farmers’ market is just as they’re
opening; while the goods are still fresh and so are you.
