Let's eat what we buy!

Since the Urban Farms Market and corner store have opened up, we've given ourselves new challenges. For our first trip, we bought what was available and cooked with it. (NOTE: produce inside the store isn't necessarily local, but rather, gives priority to giving folks in our neighborhood fresh produce that otherwise isn't as readily available to them. For local produce, visit the outdoor market!)

So, we shopped.

see the sneaky sweet potatoes at the bottom? Mmmmm!

waiting to be chopped...

lovin' that fresh cilantro

Add a few spices (cinnamon, cumin, etc. etc), potatoes, carrots, onions, cilantro, and you've got something that looks like this...

Yes. Delish.

Choosing to shop at a smaller store, with a smaller selection, is an intentional decision. We're giving up the selection of a megastore and letting dinner choose instead, more or less (instead of us choosing dinner). This may seem limiting, but really, shopping at the Urban Farms corner store is much less overwhelming, personal (conversations with customers and employees), and simple.

We hope you'll visit! The corner store is open on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 1-7pm, and Saturday from 8am-3pm. The outdoor market is open on Tuesdays from 2-6pm and Saturday 8am-1pm.

Let tomorrow's meal choose you.
