"Think global. Act local." You've probably heard that slogan before. It simply means to do what you can in your own community to help reduce the stress caused to the planet. One way to do so is to shop locally. One place to do that is at the Lake Havasu Farmer's Market.

Lake Havasu Farmer's Market

Fresh fruit and vegetables. Locally caught fish. Coffee. Jams and jellies. Baked goods. Cheese. You get all this and more at our local farmer's market. Pick up something for dinner and dessert for that evening. Talk about farm-to-table goodness! Plus learn how the food was grown and processed directly from the source. Each vendor can answer any question you have right then and there. You don't get that kind of service at a big box grocery chain.

You used to only be able to go to the market once a month. But as of January 11th of this year, the market now takes place every single week of the year. If you find yourself pressed for time, order a farm box from Rosebird Farms. Place your order by 5 am on Wednesday for pick up at the market that Saturday. Each farm box includes eggs, flowers, milk, and/or seasonal produce. Sign up for a subscription and automatically receive one weekly or every other week. Your choice.

SNAP/EBT Accepted Here

The market (as well as Rosebird Farms) accepts SNAP/EBT. In fact, spend a dollar with SNAP/EBT and receive a dollar in goods with their Double Up Arizona program. There really is no good reason to avoid our local farmer's market. So make plans to visit KAWS this weekend.
