Farmer's Market

Every fall, I love to spend my time on Saturday mornings going to the farmer's market downtown Des Moines.  This past year, I have loved to meet up with my good friend, Chris.  She and I have had lovely coffee dates, walking around or just sitting in Java Joe's if it's too cold out to be outside the whole time.  I will be a little sad as the last day for the farmer's market is next Saturday, October 29th.  I truly enjoy the sounds, the smells, the variety and diversity of people, and the wares and food on display and for sale.

This past time, we decided to get together and take pictures of different things at the Farmer's Market.  We decided to post our top five favorite pictures from the outing, so here they are.

#1 Favorite Pic: love the variety of colors!

 #3 Favorite Pic: a random customer picking up flowers.

#5 Favorite: I just like tomatoes, potatoes, and apples! :)
