lasting tradition and for the
modern visitor the market day
can be fun. Each village in
Provence holds a market day
when vendors come from distant
areas with fish meat wines and
produce.
If you are renting in a small
village this is a good time to buy
fresh fish and other ingredients
not available in the village stores.
Wine and olive oil,cheese and
especially fish come in mobile
vans to the festive markets.
Wines and Olive oils
come to the markets
from the vineyards and
mills around Mouries,
St Remy, and Les
Baux, villages
connected by country
roads through the
groves and vineyards.
