Smart shoppers know how to get the most out of their visit to the Dallas Farmers Market, and here are some useful tips:
- For the best selection, come to the Dallas Farmers Market early; for the best deals, come late in the day.
- Bring your own bag, preferably a sturdy, cloth, reusable bag, which will help keep ripe produce from getting bruised.
- Examine all the vegetables or fruit in a basket to make sure you're getting what you want.
- Plan to do a lot of shopping? Bring your own cart to carry everything.
- Ask about bargains. Sellers often have bruised or overripe vegetables and fruit that they will discount and that are perfect for pies, cobblers, sauces, or jams.
- Bring cash, particularly dollar bills, because many vendors have limited change.
- If in doubt, ask if the produce is locally-grown or where it is from.
- If the Market is one of several stops you'll be making in a day, bring a cooler for your purchases, to keep them fresh.
