Trip to the Triangle Wed Farmers Market

Im reminded all the time by people that read this blog about how lucky we are in Austin to have so many Farmers Market at our disposal. Its true that you can go to a local market Sat, Sun, Wed and Thurs in town! One market that has really grown is the Central Austin Wed Eve Farmers Market at the Triangle. This is near 46th and Lamar. See this link for the hours - usually 4-8 pm.

We specifically went to the Triangle this Wed to meet up with our goat farmer - Swede Farm - to get our weekly milk. They have had to pull back which markets they can go to and dropped out of Cedar Park Farmers Market.



I hadn't visited this market for about 6 months and I was surprised by how much it had grown. There were many veggie vendors, cakes and breads, goats milk and cheese, great teas and much more! 




Lots of tasty melons for summer!! Best time of year to get these! These are Sugar Baby WaterMelons.

 We also found a new cheese maker - Dos Lunas - two fella's who are using their granddad's cheese recipes.




We ended up buying about $7 worth of Classico cheese. It is so creamy! I melted it on triscuits over a 3 day cheese binge. These guys are totally worth making the effort to go see and try the other cheeses!



If your in the area on Wed night, check it out after work!
