In The Market
Buying from San Francisco's farmer's markets is one of the best ways you can eat and be “slow”. There are many benefits to buying from local producers. You get to support your local community economically and cut down on the fossil fuels used to ship "conventional" food across the country (or in some cases, the world). Plus, the produce is fresher, and therefore tastes better.

Each month brings abundant produce and other farm fresh products to our local farmers' markets. See what's typically in our local farmers' markets month to month and what we have found recently in our visits.

Asparagus

Asparagus


I have had asparagus shaved and raw in salads, smooth and creamy in soups, grilled, and my favorite, topped with a poached egg and bread crumbs. And if you really want to spoil yourself drizzle truffle oil on top of that. These are also one of the most classic finger foods!

Beets

Beets


Beets can be found in the market year round, but that doesnt mean you should put off cooking with them! A Summer time salad of beets, goat cheese, fennel and citrus is my favorite way to enjoy this sweet vegitable.

Carrots

Carrots


Carrots are another delicious year round vegetable. A wide variety of fresh carrots are available at farmers markets, packed full of the flavor that comes from picking them fresh with the stem still on. Use them in soups, roasts, or if you have a sweet tooth, use them to bake.

Oyster and Shitaki Mushrooms

Oyster and Shitaki Mushrooms


Oh so earthy and good. My favorite is just oven roasted with a little olive oil, salt and garlic. Then add them to anything or just eat alone. For true holiday decadence, try roasting then toss with a little chive and creme fresh.

Brussel Sprouts

Brussel Sprouts


Still on the stock or loose and ready to cook, brussels are a great source of Vitamins A and C, folic acid and fiber. They taste wonderful sauteed with shallots and tossed with sun-dried tomatoes.

Leeks

Leeks


With a very mild onion flavor, leeks amazing when braised in broth and a little cream. Top it with a sprinkle of cheese and bread crumbs - side dish heaven.
