New Farmer's Market in Carmel Valley!

Thurs. nights, Canyon Crest Academy, 3:30 - 7 pm.

SuperBoy and I hit it around 6 pm.  VERY crowded. Hopefully it wasn't just the buzz of the first week. Report:

--mostly prepared foods, with a usable supply of vegetables

--one flower vendor
--one vendor with strawberries
--one with tomatoes
--one with apples, etc. (Smit Farms, which I always like at all of the markets)

--a few competing stands with lettuce, zucchini, broccoli

--lots of bakeries
--various speciality products (oil, vegan cheesecake, etc.)
--lots of hot food stands; one food truck apparently had a 45 min. backup. We did the fish tacos, which were deep fried, but pretty tasty. SB now officially likes fish tacos.

Definitely worth a return visit even if it doesn't have the vastest competition in the fruit/veggie arena - convenient and a good time of the week!

Needs customers so it doesn't close like the late one on Sat. at Flower Hill!
