Twenty years of fresh
Even if you don't consider yourself a "foodie" and for the life of you can't tell the difference between a leek and an onion, even if you think a beet is the rhythm of a song, or you would rather see a fly on your plate than a summer squash, Durango's Farmers Market still offers up an enticing dose of smells, colors, tastes and sounds for the culinarily challenged. Last Saturday's market brought in a few more sensations with a birthday celebration marking the 20th year of the popular summer gathering with cupcakes, balloons and even a rousing rendition of “Happy Birthday.” Led by market manager Cody Reinheimer and market founder Carol Clark, as well as a dozen or so kids, the song ended with a ceremonial blowing out of the candles and a wish for many more markets to come.
