Farmer's market revisited

· · 🌡️ 0°F

Driving through kenmore this morning i saw thry have a farmers market
too. But I love the bidwell farmer's market and was hoping for honey
sticks so I waited. Sadly, the honey people were not there. I got so
much stuff including flowers, fresh Lima beans in pod ( never saw that
before) sausage, and this awesome zebra aloe plant that is flowering.

I also saw that a lot of the stands accept new York farmers market
checks. What are those?

The lima beans were so good.

    Becker Farms sells honey sticks, regularly. If you are ever driving up that way, it is worth the trip. Their pies rock too.

    In PA, it means that the farmers' market vendor accepts something similar to food stamps.

    I don't think I have had fresh Lima beans before either. How different are they from fresh fava beans?

    Farmers Market checks are part of a NYS nutrition program for low-income families. People receive them in addition to their food stamps or WIC checks usually once or twice during the summer sometime. Here's a link for further info if you're interested in finding out more: :::link:::
