Will Brokaw is famous for his beautiful avocados at the Ferry Plaza Farmers Market on Saturdays. His big, fat locally-grown avocados are easy to like.

For me, there’s little better than a ripe avocado, a fresh tortilla, a sprinkle of cotija cheese and some good hot sauce. I’m lucky because Will is happy to trade avocados for my chips or tortillas.
