Shopping tips for summer food market season
- Market season in Minnesota is underway, with more vendors and produce available as temperatures rise.
- Carry cash and smaller bills to ease payments where card options are limited.
- Bring a cooler to protect perishables from heat during and after shopping.
- Shop early for peak selection or late for potential bargains as markets vary in timing.
- Buy in season to enjoy better flavor and lower prices due to peak availability.
- Create a simple list to stay focused on essentials while exploring market offerings.
- Talk with vendors to learn about best uses, storage, and broader market offerings.
- Prefer produce that smells fragrant and feels heavy for its size when selecting items.
- Verify market policies on pets before visiting, as many markets restrict dogs.
- Minnesota Grown provides a directory to locate local markets and new ones to explore.
