If there’s one terrific way to get kids interested in trying new foods, understanding where food comes from, and choosing produce over chips (at least some of the time), it’s a trip to the farmers market.

Along with farmers selling produce, there are makers selling everything from pickles to preserves to pesto; beekeepers offering honey; ranchers who have raised chickens, beef and pigs; fishermen and women selling their catch; bakers with breads, pies and muffins.

Melissa Kubin has been bringing her young son Felix to the farmers market in New Milford, Connecticut, since he was a baby. “Now he runs to the car on Saturdays shouting ‘farmers market’!” she says. Amy Iannillo brings her four girls, ages 1 through 7, to the farmers market regularly as well. While they also love the pastries , they are all about the produce as well.

Shopping at farmers markets also can create a sense of community, since it supports local farmers and producers.
