Windsor Farmer's Market

All farmer's markets are not created equal. Each has it's own personality and flow. Normally if we go to market on Sunday we head for the Marin Market in San Rafael, a large and popular place. Today we ventured a little farther north to Windsor, Ca. We arrived as the market was just beginning. The vendors had just finished setting up their displays and were ready for business.The market has a small hometown feel and the smell of brewing coffee and breakfast burritos beckoned. We purchased some vegetables to fill the larder at home. Our find of the day was McClelland's Dairy Organic Artisan Butter. This Petaluma dairy's butter is creamy and rich. Samples are offered spread on a small bread stick and will convince you to to take some butter home. Behind the stand is a photo logo of the beautiful daughter of the family that appears on the product. It is a bit surreal to see the daughter Jana standing in front of the sign. Almost like a mirror in a mirror.

We were there on Sunday, too, but missed the market as we were headed further north. It will be fun to check it out one day = Windsor is a cute little town and we found a good restaurant that welcomes dogs. Perfect.
