The Farmer’s Market International Parade (Update) 
The Farmer's Market is an island in time and space. It is a feast of sensory delights, the beautiful colors, variety of textures, the music and gentle conversations, and the gustatory pleasures in store. Here, if you can walk or bike, you do. Here, you are happy to see other shoppers, you wait your turn politely, you are not in a hurry, you are helpful. (By KJERRINGA MOT STRØMMEN)
Thank you, thank you and a world of thank yous to all our fellow bloggers that have joined this event. I've got to tell you that although I have NOT posted my Farmer's Market visit post yet, I'll be doing it soon. You can do the same, AND please send us the info. on your post so we can add it to the next roundup.
To get the guidelines for this event in Spanish visit El Amor por la Cocina.
How to participate:
Just go to the fruit market, farmer's market, mercado, street market, super market, grocery store, or what ever you love to call those places with a colorful bounty of edible goodness to feed our bodies and the soul too. Do not forget to take lots of photos during your next visit, or dig out the ones stored in your computer that you took during 2005 too. Blog about it. We are dying to learn about the farmer's markets in your area, in your country. What can you get there, (Can you get an occasional free scorpion?) how much do the goodies cost? Just make us hungry 
Then, send us the following information, and we will love to include your post in the International Gallery of Farmer's Markets.
- The link to your post, including one or more photos of farmer's markets.
- Your post should include a link back to this post or to the CookingDiva (http://www.panamagourmet.blogs.com) and specifying that it is your contribution to the Farmer's Markets Worldwide Parade
- The photos should have been taken between January 1st 2005, and June 1st 2006.
- You are free to submit as many entries as you want, following the same guidelines of course.
- By June 10, 2006 we should have International Gallery of Farmer's Markets beautifully set up for the world to see!

What a neat idea. During spring and summer, I’d do most of my grocery shopping from local farmers/flea market. I’d love to participate in this event.
Thanks Melissa for coming up with this idea.
