Who this list is for
A morning farmers market trip calls for a car setup that brings home produce, bread, flowers, jars, eggs, and chilled goods without a pileup in the trunk. This list is for shopping and transport, not a full grocery run.
How to use this list
Start with the market shopping list, pen, cash in small bills, and debit or credit card. Put four reusable shopping bags, six produce bags, and the foldable wagon near the trunk opening. Set the two plastic produce crates and non-slip trunk mat in place before shopping, then pack the insulated cooler tote with two ice packs for chilled goods.
Common mistakes
Do not put eggs, flowers, and jars loose among heavier produce. Use the egg carton carrier, tall flower bucket or vase, and kitchen towels for cushioning jars. Avoid leaving chilled goods in a warm car while making other stops. Paper towels and the trash bag are useful for spills, not just cleanup after you get home.
What is on this list
The list includes reusable bags, produce bags, a cooler tote, ice packs, crates, an egg carrier, flower container, kitchen towels, and a wagon. It also has a water bottle, sun hat, sunscreen, hand sanitizer, and shopping payment supplies. Cross off what is already in your car.
When you are done
Load chilled items into the cooler tote first. Secure eggs, flowers, and jars separately, then place heavier produce in the crates so it stays put on the drive home.
