What $20 can buy you at the farmer's market

Posted on Aug 14th 2007 10:00AM by Bethany Sanders
People often complain that it's expensive to eat right, but in August that's not necessarily true. Plentiful harvests are showing up at farmer's markets everywhere, and fresh fruits and vegetables are for sale often for much less than you'll find at your local grocer. Marisa over at Slashfood recently asked her readers to tell her what they can buy for $20 at their local market and shared her own haul that includes no less than 19 pieces of produce!

The next time I visit my market, I'm going to take a $20 and try this challenge myself, and I'm guessing I can squeeze enough produce out of that twenty to get our family of four through several meals this week. What about you? What will $20 buy you at your local farmer's market?
