Earlier this week, I blogged about a new farmers market in downtown Fresno. I took my own advice this afternoon and visited the market – and what great advice it was!
I spent my lunch money on a carton of fresh, locally grown strawberries, a heaping carton of fresh cherries, and a half-quart of blueberries, picked yesterday in Caruthers. (I was told that the blueberries would be fresh for a week if stored in the refrigerator. They are so delicious that I don’t think I’ll find out how long they last – I’m going to devour them too quickly!)
