In Veyrier (Geneva, Switzerland) we are very lucky to have three fruit and vegetable markets a week; on Wednesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays in different spots around the commune.
My favorite one is a farmer's market situated in a barn in the middle of the greenhouse area in Les Marais de Troinex.There, you can find a smallish, yet nice array of vegetables, fruits, homemade jams, great artisan cheeses as well meat from the Jura region (beef, sausages, porc...). There you even have the possibility to sit down at a wooden picnic table and enjoy a cup of tea with a slice of cake or tart...
A cute and practical little market that offers good products (mostly regional or Swiss) for a reasonable price!

J'adore les marchés, j'y vais dès que je peux pour trouver les ingrédients du coin. C'est bon, c'est bio et bien plus équitable pour les agriculteurs du coin que les produits distribués par les grandes surfaces, alors pourquoi s'en priver!
ReplyDeleteça à l'air sympa , surtout que j'aperçois des confitures de bon matin, la ça me donne envie !
ReplyDeleteOui tu as la chance d'avoir des produits frais juste à côté de chez toi
ReplyDeleteA Nice aussi il y a deux beaux marchés tous les jours
Bonne semaine
Oh wow how is it...
ReplyDeleteta de la chance
ReplyDeletebonne lundi
I can't wait for our farmers markets to be open in late March:D
ReplyDeleteYou are lucky , c'est vrai car ua Danemark pas de marché et cela me manque terriblement d'aller choisir des petits légumes de saison , de producteurs ...il faut attendre les vacances en France . Profites en bien .bises
ReplyDeleteI love going to farmers' market. It looks wonderful.
ReplyDeleteoh I missed those days when I visited thosse farmer markets and got excited... in here it is not popular though.
ReplyDeleteFarmer's market are so wonderful! I can't wait for our local ones to open in May.
ReplyDeleteIt looks very pretty, sometimes it is nicer with small markets with great products, it's easier to make a choice then!
ReplyDeleteJ'imagine que tu dois trouver du bon fromage suisse : du gruyère (sans les trous évidemment ;-), du bon comté au goût fruité etc... Quelle chance ! Là, je grignoterais bien un morceau de fromage, pour changer du caoutchouc proposé par les grandes surfaces...
ReplyDeleteBises,

Un marché qui ouvre l'après-midi, c'est bien pratique.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful market, I can imagine myself going to this market, having coffee and cake...
ReplyDeleteCheers,

Farmer's markets are the best! We have such a short growing season where we live, ours is only open for a couple of months of the year. Vancouver has the big Granville Market which is lovely to go through when we are down to the coast visiting my mother though.
ReplyDeleteI love going to the market. I can't wait until ours opens this summer!
ReplyDeleteLooks wonderful. I love farmer's markets!
ReplyDeleteVery quaint indeed! I cannot wait for Spring for ours!
ReplyDeletewow... i bet you got quite a find there... :)
ReplyDeleteTrès sympa ces marchés ,j'adore ...merci
ReplyDeleteJe suis fan de ce genre de marché de campagne aux produits naturels et chéri pendant leur croissance!!!
ReplyDeleteI wish I had a farmer's market like this one close by!
ReplyDeleteHow wonderful! I adore farmers markets!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteBlessings,

We love these marchés ouverts.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautifully situated farmer's market, Rosa...it looks lovely, and I bet on a nice day its a wonderful place to sit with a cup of tea, and to contemplate the fresh veggies and gourmet cheeses you are going to take home! :-)
ReplyDeleteI can imagine the cheeses are outstanding!
ReplyDeleteI so LOVE farmers markets. They are so much FUN to look around!
ReplyDeleteC'est tout petit, mais ca a le merite d'exister. C'est un truc qui me manque ca, dans ma region.
ReplyDeletechez moi il y a un marché fermier tous les samedis et j'essaye d'y aller régulièrement , les prix et les produits sont très attirants
ReplyDeletebises

I adore the selection of fruits and vegetables in the Farmers Markets in Switzerland. There is so much wonderful produce in your country.
ReplyDeleteLucky.
ReplyDeleteDuring the summer months, I go to a local farmer's market, which carries a nice variety of fruits and vegetables, but they're only open Saturday mornings. So, if I snooze, I lose.
il y a un marché du dimanche à une quinzaine de km, le seul ouvert quand je ne travaille pas...c'est vrai que c'est chouette d'aller au marcher, veinarde!
ReplyDeletewhat a lovely looking market you have near you. I love roaming around new farmers markets because you always find something you can't resist.
ReplyDeleteI love farmers' markets! Yours looks luscious!! Thanks for the photos!!
ReplyDeleteYou really are lucky to have such lovely markets. We have one, and it isn't all that good. The vegetables mostly look like they fell off of a supermarket truck!
ReplyDeleteI adore going to markets. There's something wonderful about walking around all that fresh produce. Beats a supermarket any day!
ReplyDeleteLove the market photos. Looks like a fun place to shop.
ReplyDeletece marché m"a l"air très sympa. Bonne journée à toi.
ReplyDeleteThis market is definitely cute, Rosa!
ReplyDelete..wow!!rien de tel qu'un marché comme celui que tu nous présentes si bien..merci Rosa pour tes belles images..

ReplyDeleteSuch a beautiful and charming market. I wish we had something similar in Chicago.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the addresses. Next time when I'm in Geneva (probably in May) I will check the markets.
