Monday Market Sale: Utah Food Co-op

The Monday Market is the perfect place to stop on your way home from work.

It's put on by the Utah Food Co-op's Monday Market Sale at their warehouse near 1700 S and the freeway.

The Utah Food Co-op is a volunteer, non-profit organization in Utah that makes fresh and local foods available and affordable. Can't argue with that! Well, every Monday they sell produce, meats, honey, salsa, and other local treats at their warehouse. I generally only pick up produce and meat when I go to places like this (since often the treats are wonderful local bakeries sans gluten free food), and this time it didn't disappoint.

All the local foods were clearly labeled. I was able to score tomatoes and peaches that were "the first of the season," yellow and purple bell peppers, and zucchini that are all local.



I also got a few things that aren't local, like bananas, oranges, limes, and berries. They will sure be good this week!


And last, a bunch of grain fed local beef from C & S Wholesale Meats. Our hamburgers from the grill tonight were especially flavorful.




Go check out the Monday Market, or order for the montly share pickup. You won't be disappointed.
