Find a Farmer's Market to Track Down Fresh Food [Food]

from Lifehacker by Kevin Purdy

The U.S. Department of Agriculture has a powerful search engine that finds farmer's markets, or greenmarkets, that are close enough to consider for a weekend trip. It tends to have a wider number of markets listed than regional search sites, and drills down by state, county, city, or even partial market names you might remember. You'll see when the markets are open, get web links when available, and can check to see if some stands will take credit cards. Worth a visit, and print-out, for planning this or future trips that cut down on your pre-packaged shopping.
