By Amanda Martin. Updated by Mary DeMaio

Enjoy the spring weather with this weekend date idea by visiting a farmer’s market with your significant other. You’ll find individual vendors — mostly farmers — who set up booths to sell locally grown products.

Great Date Idea for the Warm Weather

Stroll around, smell the flowers and try all of the food samples, from the aged Gouda to the warm loaves of sourdough bread. Be inspired by what’s in season and grab the ripest, red apple to snack on while walking around with your honey. If you’re in the mood for lunch, you can find all of the ingredients here to make your very own picnic for two.

For this date night, pair your meal with a regional wine, and head to the nearest park.  Or, buy fresh vegetables to bring home and cook up with your partner using a recipe idea from one of the vendors. Either way, you’ll be trying something new and saving on the cost of the bill from an expensive restaurant.
