Well, new-plastic-free, anyway. I'd gone to our local farmer's market once before, but came home with some new plastic. This time, I went prepared. I didn't have enough clean cloth bags to use them for everything I bought, so I had to bring some used plastic bags with me. Still, I got green beans, a green pepper, broccoli, lettuce, and cherries without bringing home any new packaging. I'll take the cardboard blackberry basket back this Sunday.
There was some confusion when I bought the lettuce, because I used a cloth bag to purchase loose leaves by weight. I asked them to tare my bag, but the scale didn't have a tare function so after some discussion they just gave me a 25-cent discount. In hindsight, I should have just bought a head of lettuce and not worried about it.
(No pictures with this post - we ate everything before I realized I should have taken photos!)
