Believe it or not, I took my very first trip to the Waldport Farmers Market this past Wednesday, a farmers market that is located less than five minutes from my house and runs every Wednesday from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. and somehow, after almost two years of living right down the road, I’ve never stopped in. Such a shame that I’ve been missing so many incredible local goods all of this time, because my little hometown farmers market has it going on!
The produce was outstanding. I loaded up on raspberries, plums, strawberries, cauliflower, corn, gigantic onions and, of course, this beautiful zucchini featured in today’s recipe. There are homemade cookies made by the sweetest woman that are absolutely to die for, and even a food truck serving my most favorite meal on the planet, Albacore Fish & Chips.
Aside from good eats, there’s local photography, survival gear, the cutest coastal apparel from PNW Life, beautiful agates and so much more!
So if you’re anywhere near Waldport on Wednesdays, be sure to stop in to the Waldport Farmers Market from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., located at 160 NW Alder St. You might even see me there because there’s a very good chance I’ll be loading up on farmers market goodies every Wednesday from here on out!
