Get the best food or best deals at a farmers market

Just like any other shopping excursions, finding the best deals or best produce at a farmers market requires a little bit of strategy. Luckily, there are several farmers market professionals working at Classic Kia Carrollton. Here are a few of their best tips.

• Pick your time wisely. If you want to avoid crowds, the best time to go is right when the market opens, or shortly before they close. You’ll have a better selection to choose from early in the day, but you may find better deals at the end of the day.

• Be prepared. One of the best tips we heard was to bring your own shopping bags. This will make getting through the entire market as convenient as possible. Also, be sure to have plenty of cash in small denominations, not all vendors are going to be accepting cards just yet.

• Try something new. There is no telling what kind of fruits or vegetables you’ll find at a farmers market. If you come across an item that is new to you, ask the farmer (or person selling it) if they have any tips on how to best prepare it.

Would a new Kia vehicle make it easier to bring your haul home from any of these farmers markets? Make an appointment with a Classic Kia Carrollton product expert to see what we have available.
