The Perfect Pantry®

Market to Pantry #19: King George Farmers Market, King George, Virginia

From Shirley (Gluten Free Easily), in King George, Virginia:

Our market is now in its third season and last year won America's Favorite Farmers Market in the boutique category (15 vendors or less). This was a voting contest held by the American Farmland Trust. (Incidentally, it's going on right now to "crown" this year's winner at the end of the summer.) We are so proud of winning at the end of last season and holding the title right now!

Market to Pantry #18: Schenectady Greenmarket, upstate New York

From Lauren (The Very Hungry Bookworm), in upstate New York:

Every Sunday from 10 to 2, farmers, artisans, and producers travel from miles around to set up their stands at the Schenectady Greenmarket in upstate New York. In the summer, the market abounds with vibrant herbs, greens, tomatoes, locally-raised meat, fresh cheeses, and bread still warm from the oven. Musicians play as customers move from stall to stall, chatting with the people who have created this bounty.

Market to Pantry #17: Benissa Market, Benissa, Spain

From Melissa (Flying Ready), in Spain:

Here are some photos of my favorite market that's held in the town of Benissa on Saturdays. Benissa is in the Alicante province of Spain. I love this market especially because of a particular charcuteria vendor.

Market to Pantry #16: Reading Terminal Market, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

From Teresa, in Burlington, North Carolina:

Don't know why I didn't send you some photos of my train trip to Philadelphia and the Reading Terminal Market. This trip was my adventure to the "big city" by train in October of 2010. I went to meet up with some friends on an internet cooking forum.
