Vancouver's Farmer's Markets summer season kicked off last week at the East Vancouver location at Trout Lake, with 3 other locations to follow in the next 10 days or so.

With all the hype about rising food prices at the supermarkets, eating locally, and the organic food movement, some are predicting that this may be the biggest season yet, in terms of both turn out and revenue.

Between my 3 weeks away in Paris, and the 5 weeks I may be busy working with Cirque, I'm not sure how often I'll be able to make it out. We already get fresh produce box delivered to our door biweekly, so we don't have much of a need, but it's always great to stroll the booths, check out the food, and enjoy the atmosphere. With any luck I'll be at Trout Lake this weekend. One can never have too many fresh local strawberries. Yum.

Also for the cyclists out there:

June 1st is the Kitsilano market's Bike to the Market Day, with booths, information, and treats available for cyclists. There will be another one at Trout Lake a week later on June 7th.
