Off to the Farmer's Market -- which one????




Portland is a city of the most amazing farmers' markets imaginable. It's always the favorite activity for me whenever I come here. So much beautiful food -- so little time! The largest one I've been to is the downtown one on the campus of Portland State, but I understand Beaverton has an even more spectacular one. And, of course, there are neighborhood ones galore; I'll post photos of the Moreland Market later. So, imagine choosing from the following: oven-fired pizza, about 20 varieties of heirloom tomatoes, fresh seafood caught the previous night, purple and yellow and white cauliflower, every kind of flower that grows in temperate climates, organic everything (including meats), homemade cheeses, home-baked bread and pastries, homemade ice cream (lavender ice cream anyone?), etc., etc.
