Make the best of spring

With everything around us in full bloom local produce is beginning to get richer and tastier now. Why not enjoy the outdoors with a nice spring picnic in the park? It’s not just a cliche for romantic couples, so why not get some of your mates together and enjoy a day in the sun with some home made sarnies and fresh fruit and veg? (Look out for tomorrow’s post to find out what’s in season right now!)

You won’t get it any fresher than from your local farmer’s market, so head right to Upper New Street on 5 May where local farmers are selling their own fresh and tasty produce and if you want to be the greenest shade of green you’ll be pleased to hear that the range of organic products is steadily on the rise! Busy that day? The market is open from 10am to 4pm, but if you cannot make it, then don’t despair as it takes place the first and third Wednesday of every month, so another one is coming on May 19.

Maybe that’s a little bit far for you? Next Saturday to Bromsgrove High Street or The Green in Kings Norton, whereas Moseley will be hosting its own market in the city centre on Saturday May 22. For more local market news see http://www.farmersmarkets.net/calendar.htm which shows all certified farmers’ markets and has a handy search tool that will let you sort through all the ones near you.
