I found this gem at the Westport Farmer's Market Yesterday. I was shopping with my sister before the little ones gym class and really wanted to get some more fruit for the house. Here's the funny thing about their markets: sometimes you find great deals and sometimes you don't. I saw these amazing blackberries and went to purchase them for $3 then heard someone said they were $5 and walked away. Now call me cheap but don't you think you will sell more if price was lower. Even by just a $1.
Now you can purchase a membership card. I think it's called "Friends Of The Market" and each vendor has a special discount for that but that's really only helpful for frequent shoppers.
I like to purchase stuff on my way out so I am not carrying so much. I stop at one stand and see amazing fruit. I asked the lady what type of pears they had. She started listing them off and then said Apple pears. I am sold I said. For $4 I got 6 of these and see even threw in 3 little pears for the kids to try. She was extremely nice.
So here's my apple pear. A hit with kids. Looks like an apple taste like a pear. I would go back and buy more. Very tastey and tricky on the brain since inside is like a pear and outside is shaped like an apple.
Come by and check it out. It takes place until November 3rd open10:00-2:00. Hint try not to arrive at 10. I did because our gym was at 10:30 but vendors were still setting up.
