It’s the weekend, yay! Perfect for heading off to a farmer’s market near you. The Kyneton Farmer’s Market is on the 2nd Saturday of the month, and that was yesterday, so off I trotted! After the crazy heat it was lovely to be out and about making the most of the cooler day. We bought our chooks here! The bird men sell all different types of hens and roosters, as well as ducks, peacocks and even little chick-a-dees (i think that’s what the little ones are called?!).
Most of the farmers at the market are organic farmers and you can chose from an array of vegetables, herbs, meat and fruit, all seasonal and all yummy!
$5 bucks a kilo for organic stone fruit is amazing! cheap cheap cheap! We love that!
Local Kyneton bread too, we couldn’t resist the multigrain sourdough. Thank you Jimbob bread!
In the end I decided on the good old staples. Sourdough, tomato, basil, Thai basil, and coriander…. I’m off to make myself some delicious bruschetta for lunch.
