Area Farmers Markets


After a cold and dreary spring, summer finally looks like it has come out to play.  One way to enjoy the bounty of the season is by shopping the local Farmers Markets.  Not only are you getting the freshest and most healthy food that the community has to offer but you will also be supporting local farmers.  It’s a win/ win!  Below is a list for some of the best markets in the Minneapolis/ St Paul Metro:
