Farmers market One of the benefits of living in San Diego is the beautiful weather. Obviously. As a result, we get to enjoy a sunny 71 degree day in February, while much of the country is faced with snow, tornado warnings and thunderstorms.

If you’re thinking about going, CALL TO MAKE SURE THEY’RE OPEN. As much as I try, I’m only an expert in real estate – not farmer’s markets…sorry.

But the nice thing about these farmer’s markets, is that you know you’re getting fresh produce, from a local farm. Over 6,000 farmers contribute to a billion dollar agricultural industry, here in San Diego each year. The Farmer’s Markets are also certified by the State, meaning that everything is home grown and meets all the necessary standards. So go out, walk around and buy some healthy food.
