Anyone know of flea markets in or around Anoka or St. Cloud? I am willing to drive about an hour....we live in Zimmerman.
What days and times are they open?
We are looking to make our own baby food and I would like to check some markets out. Thanks!!!
Re: Flea Markets
Do you mean farmers markets that sell food? I always think of flea markets as big junky garage sales that sell used books and stuff.
For Farmers Markets there is one in Minneapolis that is open 7 days a week from 6 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. and one in Maple Grove on Thursday evenings. I also did a google search and found a farmers market in Zimmerman https://www.pzfarmersmarket.org/
I'm not really any help if you're looking for a flea market though.
Also, I was thinking about making my own baby food - but I'm over it. I go to the downtown farmers market once a week and they really don't have anything right now to turn into baby food, even if I wasn't lazy. Like - you CAN buy bananas at the farmers market, but they certainly aren't local. Same with avocados and mangos. The only thing I can think of that's grown locally that you can turn baby food is sweet potatoes - but maybe I'm not being creative enough.
Now that DS is on to self feeding I bought some avocados and mangos at Trader Joes.
We use cloth diapers too
Whoops!! Yeah, I meant farmers market!
Great link for you! Talks about foods, introductions, how to make it and lots of recipes.
