Tucon's Favorite Farmer's Market

St. Phillip's Square is the Rodeo Drive of Tucson. On Sunday mornings the square is illumined with local farmer's and their organic produce. Bustling with families, young, old and in-between, "people mingling" is quintessential, and food vendors, furnishing a medley of good eats, are the icing on the cake. Oh goodness, more cake!

One of our favorite breakfast treats is from the one and only food truck, Planet of The Crepes. Our favorite, Pesto Crepes. A delicate crepe wrapped around pesto, spinach, avocado, mushrooms and tomato. Oh and goat cheese, if you like it. E.A.T.'s Crepe Recipe
 

"I hear you, crepe and all your goodness."

But the real highlight of the crepe experience is our new-found mastery, Crepe Whispering. I mean really, have you ever heard of such an art? Well it does exist. These unique individuals have no formal training, but have discovered within themselves the ability to sense a notable crepe. 

"What's that little crepe? You are so beautiful."

 

Another high point of the Farmer's Market is Jack at Superior Organics. With Jack's gentle grace, buying his produce is like walking on a cloud in heaven.  It's a celestial experience. The picture speaks for itself.

As we mozy on down the street, we always come upon the music. This week, our dear friends Sarah Evans and Laurie Velgar were playing their music.

 A good day at the Farmer's Market isn't complete without a trip to Arizona's Sprouthouse. The variety of sprouts are astonishing. And the flavors match perfectly to the seed or bean it was sprouted from. And as Dolly Parton might say, "Kinda like us humans when our mama's give birth."

We highly recommend setting aside an hour or two on Sunday mornings to replenish and renew yourself by coming to the St. Philip's Square Farmers Market. Buy nutritious local food, support the local economy, and contribute to you and your family's health and well being.
