Before making this bread, I wanted to use the best ingredients I could find. I decided to go to one of our local farmers market here in Gainesville, Florida. This time of year, the Gainesville farmers market was in full swing with over 60 vendors (farmers and artisan) who come to the market on a weekly basis all year round.
Moving here from Ohio, I was so happy to be able to attend an outdoor market all year round. I was overjoyed with the market’s family-oriented atmosphere. My son Daevyd, who is seen below playing really enjoyed himself as you can see. I found the most delicious organic strawberries and blueberries for my banana bread recipe. I got to meet the local farmers who were friendly.
