This past Saturday, I bought a one dollar ticket for a chance at the basket of wares from various vendors at the market. The money goes toward supporting the farmers market. Lo and behold I won!The basket included baby potatoes, corn on the cob, rutabaga, an eggplant, a couple of varieties of peppers, cherry tomatoes, donut peaches, an apple, a red pear, two plums, basil, cinnamon honey, huckleberry bread, a large chocolate and sugar cookie, a bracelet with butterfly charms, a cat toy, a neck cooler tie and a beautiful embroidered t-shirt that says "I love my garden". It was a totally awesome basket.

Farmer's markets are great and this one looks awesome.
Great photos. I was at two farmer's markets this weekend. I'm a big believer in supporting our local farmers.
Wow, what a great basket of goodies. The market looks so cheerful. I haven't had a farmers market close by in a very long time. I miss them, the people and the great good buys.

Indeed, that is a Cool Basket
You are so lucky. That was a cool catch with one dollar.
Congratulations! That basket has a lot of goodies. Would you believe there are two farmers markets in the summer in the heart of the Financial District? And Ive been to two! Lets support our local farmers!
oh my dear Sally!
I just love this kind of open market, and this farmer market looks awesome!
What was that? A bread? oh girl...I can not resist!A dream!
I would love to be there!

This looks yum! It looks like you're a neighbor of my big sister, Jean, (who is much littler than I!) wfrom Twisp.
I love to go to the market too. Congratulatons on your win!
I love these markets. I love, too, that they seem to be appearing in greater numbers as people who own land do their best to be able to keep it.
Sally: Way to go, someone has to win so why not you. Perfect story to go with the post.
I would love going to a market like this. Nothing better than fresh produce. I am from the old days of farming, so guess I still have part of that in me. Really enjoyed your post and your stop by my place.
WOW!...and on top of all that there was the actual basket. Lucky you!
Gosh, Sally - that was a dollar well spent! Lovely basket of goodies. I love to shop Farmer's Markets.
I was attracted to those yellow vegetables that look like flat peppers. What are those?
I love farmers markets!
Your day looked to be happy and full. And what about that basket? That's cool you won. Congrats. You won't have to go grocery shopping for a week or two now. :o)
