New Jersey: Farmers' Markets
July 28, 2013
We're right in the thick of farmers' market season here in New Jersey.
You can find your local markets on the Jersey Fresh site, by clicking here.
The Hawthorne market has some good produce and other goodies. Worth a trip.
I tend to find myself at Ridgewood's market, to get some not terribly farmy items: fresh mozzarella, bread, and sundried tomatoes. And then I put it on a sandwich with a splash of balsamic vinegar, EVOO, and a chiffonade of basil. Protip: Do yourself and everyone else a favor, and park in the northbound parking lot of the train station, and walk under via the tunnel. The extra couple of steps will do you good.
Lunch tastes as though it was picked from Jersey's fertile soil this morning:
And now for some things that grow:
Tenafly (I've been advised that the Tenafly market is no more!)

Tomatoes from Tenafly for lunch
BLT and mutz salad with stuff from Hawthorne. Homemade B, of course.
