Arlington Farmers Market – July 25, 2009...

In preparation for our week away, the Boy and I headed to the Arlington Farmers Market on Saturday to stock up on grill worthy foods.  Since we knew the cabin had both a gas and charcoal grill, we pretty much knew we’d be throwing everything we could on the grill.  With that in mind, our first stops were at EcoFriendly Foods and Smith Meadows Farm to pick up some meats!
