Farmer's Market

One of the things I've enjoyed about Spring and Summer in Riverdale has been the weekly farmer's market. It gives me an opportunity to walk around the neighborhood, purchase some fruits and vegetables, and support some local farmers. Its definitely a great way to promote a healthy community.

While there is a great variety of produce vendors, a farm that sold meat was definitely missing. This past week there was a couple from Pennsylvania who were selling their antibiotic-free pork and beef products. They were friendly people who talked as if they would be back again. I bought a sirloin, for a reasonable price, and grilled it up that night for dinner. The meat was great quality and turned into a delicious meal for my wife and I. So I will likely be buying from them again when they return to the market, and I'll be sure to let them know how much I enjoyed their product.
