Photobucket is holding all my photos I stored with them from 2007-2015 hostage. They have blacked out all those photos on my blog posts. OH BOTHER! I’m slowly cleaning up my posts.
F is for Farmers Market where we shopped this last Saturday.
The Farmers Market in Old Town Camarillo, California
F is for fruit. We have fields of strawberries in our town and strawberry stands where we can buy them all during the week fresh from the fields when they are in season.
F is for flowers the more unusual and flamboyant
and some more fragrant flowers
We bought purple cauliflower, artichokes, brussel sprouts, and limes. (Nothing starting with F) but all very fresh and flavorful. The artichokes were wonderful. My husband likes to have his with mayonnaise and I love mine with Ranch Dressing. Yum! I made a cauliflower soup that was blended with onion and garlic. (strange to eat purple soup). It was very good.
This is a strawberry field near my home. This made me want to sing “Strawberry Fields Forever”
This is a strawberry stand in my town that sells fresh berries from the adjoining field. So luscious, sweet and juicy!
For more ABC Wednesday photos go visit Mrs. Nesbitt all the way in the UK!

I can hardly wait for the farmers’ markets to open up again, but the snow will have to melt and the weathr get much warmer first. LOL
I’m a hell of a long way from California, but shop as much as possible at local farmers markets. 🙂
Really nice pictures! I can’t wait for some fresh strawberries!
ooh – strawberries!
OH how fun! I love farmer’s markets, fruits and flowers. YAY! Wonderful pictures and commentary! 😀
Those are very cool flowers. Great shots overall.
Oh the strawberries look delishious! And I love the first flowering plant! How unusual, very nice!
LOVE these photos .. 🙂
Okay, I am totally jealous. I absolutely love farmers markets. The fresh fruits and vegetables are making me green with envy. Great shots!
That farmer’s market is terrific. I might have to head up to Camarillo to check it out.
WONDERFUL:D
I love Farmers Markets – we have one every Sunday from June through August in my town. Lots of fresh everything!
Great photos and i have to say those are some huge strawberries and look so yummy
wow.. nice pics you have. The stawberry looks delicious 😀
Will you visit mine 😀 Thanks
Farmers Markets open in February–and you are homesick for Washington?!? I think yours could make me homesick for California, though I’ve been FROM it much longer than I was in it.
Lovely collection of pics. I wish we had a farmers’ market here. There’s a local produce market this weekend, which is almost a farmers’ market, so I may take a wander along to it. Happy ABC Wednesday!
F is for Feeling envious of the farmer market open and selling strawberries in February. smile.
These fruit and vegetables look so “fresh”…… I’m hungry. 🙂
Those exotc flowers look REAL familiar right now! They are all over the place here. Beautiful!
I forgot about the Farmer’s Market….I love them!
Wonderful post
I haven’t seen such a gorgeous array of fruit and flowers in a long, long time. The contrast to our local farmers market, even on its best day, is stark.
If I went there, I’d need a cart to haul things home! Eat a strawberry for me!
What yummy fruit and flowers! Yours market looks far grander than my post today 🙂
Beautiful photos for F to day:)
Beautiful pictures and a great F-post:o)
I love farmers markets – all is so fresh and delicious!
My mouth is watering after looking at all the great food pics, must be snack time!

Ummmm, yummmm fresh fruit and produce. Never saw purple culiflower before…purple soup could be a challenge but i bet it was good. Interesting posts for the letter F.
Yummi! 🙂
Great choises!
Great photos! I knew I forgot something else I wanted to post and that was the fresh fruit from the Farmers market here. Oh well.
You asked if Fort Vancouver was in Vancouver, Wa. . . YES it is! The fort WAS Vancouver, Wa when being first settled! They are doing archeological digs and replacing all the old buildings that used to be there with authentic materials. They have dramatizations at Thanksgiving and Christmas and during the year, it is free while they charge a fee in the summer.
That looks just wonderful! I’ve never seen a purple cauliflower before. I guess I don’t get out much.
The fruit and flowers are all spectacular
What a wonderful market that is
Enjoyed seeing your pictures of your Farmer’s Market.Those strawberries looked quite yummy.The flowers are so pretty.Our farmer’s markets don’t open till the middle of summer when the local farmers start harvesting their crops.
Those strawberries look delicious! Surely you can’t buy fresh strawberries in February?!!
Mmm, luscious post!
Fresh farm produce – great. I love strawberries.
If you don’t tell anybody, I was once accomplice in stealing ONE orange off a tree in Redlands south of LA.
I am a bit late in commenting, but better late than never!
