text: As a visitor to Scottsdale I thought a stroll through the farmers market was a great way to get a taste of the local flavorliterally And it was There is a great mix of vendors who sell everything from baked goods to coffee from vegan wraps to preserves There are also some interesting services like pet massagesnnLike Vicky T said it was surprising to see dogs with their owners wandering through the farmers market because that is against code in California But I thought it was great and with the pet masseuse and a doggy and kitty treat vendor it totally made sensennFarm Sessions where local chefs give cooking demos with produce from the market is a great idea I would like to see at my local farmers market It did seem odd though that all the produce at the market was in one corner It was the shadiest spot so maybe that is whynnAnyway this was a great way to spend a Saturday morning and was very relaxing compared to my local farmers markets where I often feel like I need to start throwing some elbows to get through the crowd
