| - Stopped here for the first time last weekend after following GFM on Facebook/Twitter for a while, and am now adding it to my dedicated calendar of things to do on the weekend. I'll definitely have to practice getting up earlier, but this farmer's market is worth it. I was really pleasantly surprised that there were so many different vendors - enough that I could plan my whole week out without getting bored of the selection! Fruits and vegetables, beef and chicken, pasta and sauces, salsas, bread and cheese, soaps, jewelry and kid stuff. And all of it grown, produced, and sold locally!
My only problem was that while 9 out of 10 vendors take cards, I never carry cash on me and I couldn't find an ATM anywhere nearby, and thus I had to woefully miss out on a few of the great items offered. I'll make it a point to bring cash next time, but I honestly didn't expect to be going home with items from almost every vendor! I think my favorite thing about visiting this market is that I now am aware of even more local businesses and families that I can support with my purchasing needs - even outside of the market! Yay local!
