The farmer’s markets here are pretty legit, but I live in the midwest, so we have a ton of farms. I got some amazing goat cheese the other day at the farmer’s market. The problem is the prices are ridiculous so we only go once in a while.
We did discover the lady we get our dog treats from though.
Lifehacker tip: instead of buying dog treats by the ounce, just use another type of dog food as treats and buy it by the tens of pounds. If you’re excited they’re a real treat.
I do this with my cats. I get kitten kibble for them as treats. I can give them several bits cuz the kibbles are small, they love it, and even though kitten grain free food is wicked pricy, still cheaper than treats!
They normally eat wet food, but have a mix of dry stuff available at all times, so it does really work. They don’t know the difference.
Oh we’re more bougie than that. Like I said, we get dog treats from a local baker. Trust me, my dogs like them so much more than treats you could get from a store, and definitely more than a 10 pound bag of different food.
I have a local “Barkery” that makes amazing dog treats. Definitely way better than store bought, and it’s nice to support a local business. They also give my dog freebies worth more than what I’m buying most times I stop in, so I can’t complain about price too much
Yeah, I’m really happy to help this lady. She’s super nice and she just does this as a business out of her home. Every time I order, I tell her to mail it to me (and pay the extra for shipping) because I just don’t want the hassle of arranging a pickup and every time she says, “are you sure? I hate to charge you extra!” Plus, she makes dog treats that look like Indiana- where we live- which is just fun.

And then get a Mennonite to sell them. “Farm fresh mangos” in Halifax.
