Many Food Options Today

What a great day of choices for the Boulder-area foodie.  We have the Boulder Farmers' Market going on as usual, and I believe Arapahoe leading to it will finally be open following the summer's construction, yay.  Then there's the annual peach festival happing in Lafayette (see a few posts below for details).  Then further, there's Lucky's Market's grand opening in Longmont celebration happening today and tomorrow (again, look a few posts below for details).  Fun times!

Lafayette Peach Festival Saturday

Old Town Lafayette will be hopping this Saturday, the 17th, with the Lafayette Peach Festival running from 9 to 4 on Public Road.  They're expecting over 30,000 pounds of certified organic peaches, along with cobblers and pies, bands on two stages, arts and crafts, a farmers' market, and more.  Maybe I should look up peach recipes from Julia Child, since today would be her birthday!

Farmers' Markets Today

We have our usual Farmers' Market in downtown Boulder today from 8 to 2 (don't forget that next week's will be held on Sunday instead, due to the pro bike race).  Planning types can check out the produce to expect using the market's crop list.  Today is also the Lafayette Peach Festival, from 9 to 4, which will also feature its own farmers' market, in addition to a ton of peaches.

Natural Food Choices Head East

I wonder if any other county has as many natural foods grocery stores per capita as Boulder County. And it's getting even better, with today's Daily Camera reporting that Sunflower Farmers Market will open a store in Lafayette this year, where an Albertsons used to be located.
