It was a nice day. The stands were clearly marked. Everyone I delt with was delightful. The food I took home was perfect. The plants I brought home are even better. Thank You smalltown American farmers. No bathrooms. Parking sucks.

I have visited and lived in a few places around the country, and this is one of my favorite farmers markets. I especially love coming here early in the morning when its still cool, and there are still plenty of parking spots AND flowers available (both can go fast!).nnSometimes, I can stick around

Looking for something to do and wanting some fresh veggies, we decided to try out the Farmers Market. It was a great little market. Not as big as the one we have at home, but very nice. I was able to get some great veggies and also some AMAZING granola from Kates Granola. Definitely check it out!
