The Red, White, and Green

I try to make every week farmers market week, but here’s your excuse to visit one if you’ve as of yet been reluctant: Secretary of Agriculture Tom Vilsack has proclaimed Aug. 2-8 National Farmers Market Week.

Never been to one before? Need to brush up on your shopping tips? Check out our handy video on how to make the most of your farmers market excursion:
