    One of the best farmer's markets in the country. Great selections of local produce, meat, artisanal cheese&bread, organic dairy products etc. Don't miss the cooking demos. Here we caught Rick Bayless.

    One of the best ways to spend a Saturday morning. I never knew there were so many kinds of tomatoes and potatoes. The crepes are amazing. Get the River Valley Florentine from Abby's! It's the best!
