I road by the Los Gatos farmers market when it was just closing down. Lot's of good things to eat here... the nut stand;

Los Gatos is a trendy little town with quite a few cafes, this is in front of the Los Gatos coffee roasting company

Right next door they have a running store with some bright shoes that were on sale

On the way back, there is a neighborhood fruit/vegetable stand named J&P farms. The last owner operated farm in San Jose.

I can cycle all day long if I hit a string of farmers markets and fruit stands every 20 miles...lol

hmm... when it was just closing huh? wonder if you get better deals then.

Some of the farmers markets offer deals when they close, especially in the summer when they cannot consume all of the strawberries before they go bad. If they can't sell them, they will spoil due to heat.

That's good. Then you know when to go and save some bucks. :-)

nice to see you and .amazing..so nice places dear..
