Farmers Market
Atascadero,
Calif.--Shoppers wander along the sidewalks
of the North County Market in Atascadero. The
Farmers Market is held each Wednesday.
When visiting San
Luis Obispo County, the Central Coast California
Wine Country, take time to stroll at the local
farmers markets as the shoppers shown in the photo
above are doing. In the summer you'll be wearing
shorts and tanks or t-shirts. Winters, you better
bring a coat to stay warm on some of those chilly
afternoons.
Located in
downtown Atascadero next to the Sunken Gardens , the
grass lawns of the spacious civic center plaza bring
the community out for something they look forward to
each week. Fresh fruits, vegetables and locally
grown produce make for a good meal at home. And
don't forget the affordable fresh cut flowers that
will last about a week till the next event.
Shown in the
picture above are shoppers strolling and looking at
tables filled with onions, artichokes and a variety
of items. This region offers some mighty find
boutiqe wines, too. A few of the wineries show up at
the local events from time to time, but it's a short
drive to the wine trail that offers tasting of a
variety of the wines.
