Swarthmore Farmers Market — Attraction in Swarthmore

Went today for the peach festival today for the first time. Live music, lots of the typical yuppies and locavores. Much love. Only 2 really "large" fruit n veg vendors, maybe 1 or 2 smaller ones that had a handful of produce. There was 1 vendor truck onsite and also a mexican food vendor in a booth.

The berries and melons were a bit high, way more expensive than what I would have purchased; $5 for smaller tray of Blackberries and $8 for a cantaloupe. Will go again but will check out other farmers markets first. Free...
