We love farmers' markets. They may not be quite as hip as they once were, but they're still a great place to shop, meet people, and try new foods.

Join us, Bruce Weinstein & Mark Scarbrough, as we talk about why you should still seek out your local farmers' market. We've also got an interview with Leslie Wilcott-Henrie, the president of the Lexington, Massachusetts, farmers' market, to give you the lowdown on how these markets work.

Plus, our traditional one-minute cooking trip. And lots of praise for Shanghai leek sauce and Sichuan xian bing!
