Readers' Choice: Name Your Favorite Produce Market

While fresh vegetables may be found throughout the year, summer time always makes you think about visiting the farmer’s market and produce stands much more often.

The grill is being used more these days and what provides a better side to that steak, chicken or fish than a side of grilled vegetables.

Looking for the best produce in town? Walter at Bi-Lo isn’t the only one who’s trying to satisfy your need for great fruits and vegetables.

Local produce stands and farmer’s markets provide a variety of goods in addition to a fresh assortment of produce.

Have a produce stand or farmer’s market that you frequent? What makes you go back? Great service? Great prices? Great vegetables? Or the little things you stumble across like real vanilla extract, local honey and strawberry preserves?

Tell us about your favorite stop and nominate it for our “Best Produce Stand or Farmer’s Market” as Patch unveils its Readers’ Choice.
