Ste. Foy-la-Grande Saturday marche–gc

We went to our first farmer’s market yesterday in the town of Sainte Foy-la-Grande. It’s a great, vibrant market with lots of fresh local produce (including “bio”/organic), all manner of meats, cheeses, charcuterie, bread and pastries, specialty foods (fois gras and the most decadent figs stuffed with pate!). There are also plenty of “dry goods,” handicrafts and local crafts people (watchmakers, potters, chair recaners), including this fellow–who graciously allowed me to play a bit on his guitar AND played “Nuages” for us. Great way to start our first weekend!
