if you live around penn or in west philly, you should absolutely spend your saturday mornings at the clark park farmer's market. you can find everything there: bread, veggies, eggs and meats, yogurt, cakes, spices, chocolate, all kinds of stuff. all of it is local and most of it is organic.
if you want to get more for your money, you can also join a csa (community-supported agriculture). joining a csa is a great way to build a close relationship with a local farmer, eat local, and get more food for less money. right now, i'm a member of the keystone csa. you can read more about it here: http://www.keystonefarmcsa.com/.
when it's warmer out, clark park is also just a great place to hang out on the weekends. there are usually tons of people out (and lots of dogs and babies). there is also a flea market that happens every few weeks in the spring and summer. you can find more info here: www.clarkpark.info.
bottom line: you should check it out. and bring some friends.
