Take the Family to the Farmers Market
Fun activities for the whole family at the local Farmers Market.
Yeah! The is open again every Saturday from 7 a.m. to 1 p.m. downtown near the Metra Station and I'm thrilled. It has become a family tradition for us to head on down to the market with the kids (and dog) to see what healthy, locally-grown foods are in season or even what's going on in town. I grab my Coffee Toffee from Norma's Coffee Corner and we walk into town (feeling just like the farmers of old) to see what's new. Our family is together, outside in the sunshine, discovering new foods, promoting local farmers, and exercising by walking the neighborhood.
Do you take the family to the Palatine Farmer's Market? What do the kids enjoy most? For inspiration, check out my post for ideas on how to have Fun with the Kids at the Farmers Market.
