Here is the Ultimate Guide to the best Phoenix farmers markets to attend all year! Almost every time, my clients and I end up talking about food – who wouldn’t? Whether it’s a mama-to-be wanting to find new sources for healthy and organic foods to eat while baby grows, or a family making some lifestyle changes, I like to keep track of the most farmers markets recommended, so I can give them a few to check out in their area. Now, I’m sharing it with you, too! Keep your skin glowing, hair flowing and kids trying new foods by shopping your local markets (is it a bonus that you will be glowing for your family portraits, too? I think yes.)
