We'll buy our tomatoes and other veggies here until ours come in.There has been a farmer's market at the bottom of our street - just seven houses away - since the 1940's. It was originally open just for Christmas trees, then for Halloween pumpkins. Several years ago the market added veggies and fruits, home baked items and eggs, even fresh shrimp from the Carolina coast. Shopping there is such an enriching experience, as it attracts people from all cultures and walks of life -old Charlotte to new South - chefs to young mothers.
