Downtown Hickory Farmers' Market

This is a fun and beneficial trip for my husband and me. The Market is located so that we can have lunch on the town square and do any necessary shopping at the fun stores before loading our car. I see local friends and meet new people as I shop among the vendors. My husband and I buy different items. The food and baked goods are delicious. If I need a gift, there are fantastic plants and flowers. I even bought my herbs there this year. They add alot of flavor to the produce when we get to our kitchen. The fun begins when we bring everything home and decide which foods to group for meals. We always have to buy extra okra or squash because the family gathers around as we cook it and it disappears from the plate before the rest of the meal is prepared.
