Cars are very expensive making these bicycles with large carts very popular.
These photos are from my morning walk to Jerretaderas.
Every Tuesday Jerretaderas has a fresh fruit and veggie market around the town square. Jerretaderas is a small town near Nuevo Vallarta and just a 20 minute walk from our boat. Along with fruits and veggies you can also buy bulk items like rice and beans, mole, honey, as well as a smattering of other items from clothes and beauty supplies to second-hand sewing machines and blenders.
Road in to Jerretaderas
Jerretaderas is such a small town that one time someone asked if I was lost and needed directions. They don’t get many outside visitors here.

Fresh tortillas!
I restock our fresh food every Tuesday to support the local market. The mole guy is my favorite vendor! You can buy powder or paste almond mole from him and he has cooking instructions in English and Spanish. I’m also experimenting with chayote and bottleneck squash which will keep longer for our summer in the Sea of Cortez where we will have limited access to fresh food. This week I bought these baskets to make it easier to store and retrieve items from our in-counter refrigerator. They are so pretty!
Jerretaderas Tuesday Market Goodies!
Everything looks good. Makes me wish I was able to go food shopping with you.
By the end of the trip you’ll be an excellent vegan cook!
