I just stumbled upon the most epic Saturday morning hangout spot in Downtown Phoenix - the Farmers…read moreMarket at the Arizona Center from 8am-1pm. They've got an insane variety of vendors selling everything from fruits and veggies to dog treats, candles, pastries that'll make your taste buds do the happy dance, food, gift items, and a whole lot more. And the cherry on top? All the vendors were ridiculously friendly, dishing out samples and the lowdown on their products like they're sharing secrets with old pals. Plus, there's ample seating, a DJ spinning tunes, and more food vendors than you can shake a stick at. It's basically the ultimate Saturday morning chill zone, and your furry friend is invited too - just keep 'em on a leash, okay? Oh, and bonus points - it's also the perfect spot for people watching, so grab a coffee, sit back, and enjoy the show!

They have a lot of vendors, a lot of fresh organic and seasonal crops, seeds, and honey and ready to eat foods from small businesses. There is definitely something for everyone!! They open every Thursday 10:30am to 1:30pm and the vendors are always happy and professional. If you need to you the loo, you could probably use the one in the museum, it's free too so check it out!!

While it is unfortunate that food deserts exist in Phoenix, it is heartening to know that there are…read morecommendable efforts to correct this situation. One of these efforts is this community and urban incubator farm which was established by Cultivate South Phoenix (CUSP) to give residents of South Phoenix affordable access to healthy food while encouraging them to appreciate active living and healthy roots of their cultures. At the Saturday farmer's market you can get very locally grown produce and craft items while taking in the cultural performances of local talents. The site of Spaces of Opportunity includes a 10-acre incubator farm where quarter-acre to one-acre plots of land are made available with a preference to farmers who are part of the South Phoenix community and who have limited resources. Also, community members can rent a plot to plant, grow and harvest produce for their own use or to share with others - and the rental fee is an super-affordable $5 a month! I love that here I was able to get fresh locally grown produce as well as craft items to be given as presents and in so doing I celebrate the culture and encourage the efforts of South Phoenix gardeners, farmers and farm workers.

Conveniently located near the 202, I had no choice (lolll!!!) but to make a stop on the way home after a long tough day at work. It was only Monday, so I wanted something sweet to heal my heart, mind, and soul. Love the accommodations (I asked for my shake half dine-in, half to-go) and the staff members were so patient with me when I was deciding what to get. Not looking forward to the next rough work day, but would love to come back soon for some sweet pick-me-up!!

Now over a year into this pandemic, Arizona Microgreens has stood the test of time as one of the few consistent spots still selling them with zero decrease in quality. I'm pretty simple - pea sprouts and arugula are usually my go-tos. But all of their stuff is incredibly clean - both literally and in taste. You get a lot for what you order. And I love the fact that you can order online and pickup straight from their greenhouse in the middle of the week. They're so good that I can get my little brother to wolf down their broccoli greens without even asking what it is. If that's not a ringing endorsement, I don't know what is.

It was easier than expected and I think my wreath came out very well! She also served a delicious salad, soup, and pastries.

So far, I'm into week 4 of Maya's Farm Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) for Winter 2013. I've…read morereally been excited every week to receive the wonderful veggies and fruits. If you are not familiar with a CSA and how it work, here's a down and dirty explanation. You pay a certain amount of money in advance for several months of veggies each week. In this case, Maya's farm charges about $300 for 12 weeks of a whole heck of a lot of veggies that are certified organic. You support your local farmers and you know where your food is coming from. I recommend that you swing by the farm and take a stroll around. You might see Maya. I've met her and I think she's a very nice person. I will update this review with more info but I think the pictures that I post of Maya's Farm CSA speak for themselves. My only wishlist with Maya's farm is to have a half-basket. My small family and I can't finish all the veggies in one week.

Last night my whole opinion of horseradish drastically changed...in a very positive way! During Phoestivus at the Phoenix Public Market, I browsed the rows of local food vendors and stumbled across Grate Roots. Intrigued, I started to ask more about horseradish. At first, I tried a sample out of courtesy and then my mind was blown. When did horseradish get a tangy taste with a serious kick to it? Why did I just want to take a spoon and eat the whole thing by itself? I was blown away. This local company makes several flavors including their seasonal flavor Cranberry, a fruity flavor, the basic flavor and then beet. Yes beet. They had me sample the beet flavor and again, I did it just out of courtesy and then to my disbelief, I fell in love! I immediately thought of a turkey or tuna fish sandwich topped with this spicy goodness, so I had to make a purchase. I left with Beet horseradish and I plan on making myself a tuna fish sandwich topped with this yummy local flavor to add a kick to my day. I learned that they sell their products at local Farmer's Markets as well as AJ's. Now I know where to replhish my stash.
