Farmer's Market (Rollinsford, NH)

I am lucky to be off from work this weekend.  The weather is gray and cold outside so my husband and I decided to visit the Winter Farmer's Market located in Rollinsford, NH.  The market was well attended by many people with the same idea--in search of good locally raised and farmed food!! Fortunately for us it was held inside in one of the warm Wentworth greenhouses.  There were lots of vendors selling all sorts of interesting produce and prepared food.  I reconnected with people I have met in the past and made a few new contacts.  My husband and I ate some delicious omelets and potato pierogi while listening to live music.  I tracked down Sherrie from Cracked an Egg Farm and purchased a rabbit from her.  Thank you, Sherrie!!

why travel to Italy for fresh pasta when you can
visit Valicenti Organico in NH for equally good pasta?
