Casey Visits a Farmers' Market

http://www.minnesotagrown.com Farmers' markets are a great resource for fresh, local produce. There's probably one near you because Minnesota has over 100 farmers' markets! Casey DeRosier made a trip to the Minneapolis Farmers' Market recently to see what great things are available. Check out Casey's blog, Livin' La Vida Local, on the Minnesota Department of Agriculture's Minnesota Grown website at http://www.mda.state.mn.us/food/minnesotagrown/blog.aspx . The Minnesota Grown Program is a statewide partnership between the Minnesota Department of Agriculture and Minnesotans who grow or raise specialty crops and livestock. The program has nearly 1,000 diverse members including farmers' markets, CSA farms, garden centers, wineries, fruit & vegetable growers, pick-your-own farms, livestock producers, meat processors, Christmas tree growers, and producers of honey, wild rice, maple syrup, cheese, and other gourmet products
