Bahrain Farmers Market

During the winter months, you'll need to check out the Farmers Market.  This past season, the market was held at the agriculture park at the end of Budaiya Highway.  The market opens early, and the local merchants setup booths offering a wide selection of produce.  They have all sorts of food such as different types of lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, onions, dates, berry's, broccoli, and cauliflower to mention a few.  There are also tables setup were vendors are selling food.  I didn't buy any food items, but friends of ours told us that the omelets are delicious.  We typically buy a couple weeks worth of produce for less than 10BD.  I read in the paper that next years market may be near Al'Ali to provide space for more vendors.
