About ten minutes up the road of Warren is the town of Waitsfield, and thanks to being in the area on a Saturday, we got to spend some time checking out the farmers’ market. Nice spot for lunch, methinks! The sun was out, the locals were out enjoying it and we were lucky enough to be part of it. Running from mid May to mid October, the market not only covers the fabulous fresh produce that comes from these parts, but it’s a showcase for local jewellers, craft queens, artists, furniture makers and artisans to show off and sell their wares.

It may be a small market but there’s plenty to choose from when it comes to breakfast or lunch offerings. Baked items, Mexican, yak burgers & sausages, sandwiches, Pak-Afghani food and more. For me it was a slice of pepperoni pizza from Open Hearth Pizza, a nifty little wood-fired set-up on the back of a truck. The whole pizzas barely lasted a minute before there was demand for more.
