by Brandon Smith It’s officially that time of year! The Downtown Farmers’ Market season is upon us.

I took the challenge to heart and based my dish on a recipe from Sacramento’s own Elise Bauer at Simply Recipes. I followed Elise’s recipe almost exactly, […]
By Sara Ortega and Ana Marie Aguas If there’s one event the SacFoodies look forward to this time of year, it’s the farmer’s market conveniently located right outside our office on Capitol Mall! We are always delighted every Thursday by the scent of grilling Indian cuisine, baking Italian pizza and some of the best food trucks […]
When the weather warms up and summer is in full bloom, one of the most anticipated activities for many is visiting local farmers markets.
