We have three secrets to make your next trip to the farmer's market totally GREEN.

Secret #1: Don't be afraid to bargain. Some products at the farmer's market won't be in good enough shape to sell tomorrow and many times the farmer doesn't want to haul his crops back home.

Secret #2: There's a lot more to the market than produce. Handmade items such as soap, canned goods and clothing can often be found at the farmer's market.

Secret #3: Always be a loyal customer. You can learn more about their farming methods and how green items are by getting to know your local farmers.
