We found the Sunday farmer's market near our new place and, wow! It's a good one. We also have a huge market two blocks from the house which has several good shops including a butcher, a fish market, an organic/health food store with bulk spices and nuts (and raw honey), and a nice looking produce market. I'm headed over there now to see if they have some free range chicken.
We'll be shopping at these two places for most of our food, so I'm working on making sure I've got the Portuguese vocabulary to ask for what I want. We did pretty well this week.
- Organic = orgânico
- Grass fed/pastured = criado no pasto
