Every Saturday an outdoor market is set up in downtown Annecy. Like many other towns throughout Europe, the weekend is the time where you can find fresh produce and homemade goods, at very economical prices.
Annecy is located in the Rhone Alps and High Savoy. It's one of the more beautiful areas of France with its scenic views of the Alps, lakes and meadows filled with lavender. Because of its pastures and good soil a wide variety of cheese and sausages are produced in this area along with a good selection of fruits and vegetables.
I found that all kinds of berries grow here and are used very much so in their desserts and bakery. You will find bakeries filled with pastries made with blueberries ( Myrtilles) also currants (groseilles) are a favorite. I took a stroll one Saturday and took some photos of some produce that I found interesting and beautiful! Enjoy!!!!
How amazing sweet cousin. What a wonderful experience you must have had and congrats to you. Love Merrilene
