		<description><![CDATA[Though the farmers' market I usually shop at is the Heart of the City, I stop by the Ferry Plaza a few times a year. This is not so much for the produce, as I find that the fruit and vegetables at the Heart of the City are quite fabulous and much less expensive, but for the items that are harder to find, The Ferry Plaza Market is great!<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=mindfulindividual.wordpress.com&blog=1784287&post=275&subd=mindfulindividual&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

My favorite things available right now are the fresh beans (black-eyed peas, cranberry and edamame) the wonderful berries (blueberry, strawberry, blackberry and [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=mindfulindividual.wordpress.com&blog=1784287&post=161&subd=mindfulindividual&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

I&#8217;ve started buying and drying my own herbs from local sources, and buying herbs, spices and staples when available.
