There is now an organic market in town! It’s on Wednesday and Saturday mornings (early mornings) in front of the district offices on the main road. So, if you’re at the restaurants downtown, go west until you see the district offices on your left and you should see it there. It has been open for about 2 weeks now, but so far I haven’t seen it because James has gone a couple times on his early morning bike rides. I’m planning to go tomorrow morning and maybe I can get some pictures.
So far James has found:
- eggplant
- green beans
- many kinds of leafy greens
- dill
- thai basil
- summer squash
I’m excited about this because it’s hard to figure out what is really organic at the other markets. It will also be a great way to eat seasonally and locally since there isn’t any produce there imported from outside the province. Don’t forget to bring your own bag - they have a policy against sellers giving out plastic bags.
