The Nashville Farmer’s Market is another reason why I love my ‘hood.  I went there yesterday in search of strawberries and blueberries for our morning smoothies, but instead found juicy Georgia peaches and blackberries so plump and huge that I bought them instead.  Also, there were no strawberries or blueberries to be found.  Where are the strawberries?  Did I miss the season or has it not happened yet?

beautiful big blackberries

I also found a guy from The Peach Truck.  The Peach Truck’s story is so cute, you should read about it: http://thepeachtruck.com/pages/about.  Anyway, it’s awesome to have fresh juicy Georgia peaches within walking distance.
