| - Has got to be one of the best Farmer's Markets in the country.
My sister and I were visiting friends in Madison this last weekend, and we went to the market. It circled the Capitol, so we just picked a spot and started around till we ran out of cash! We didn't get much fruit or veggies because we were traveling, otherwise we would have gotten some beautiful strawberries. There was produce, of course, but also tons of great booths of cool stuff like arts and crafts, (even got a marble sample from a wierd guy selling marbles...), honey, canned goods, cheese, meats, and baked goods. I was out of money, but we had fun tasting pestos at the pesto and pasta stand.
We didn't stay for a super long time, but we got some ten-year old cheddar(after trying lots of samples) some cheese danishes, corn salsa, rosemary infused salt, chicken bratwurst and some other fun samples. We shared a cup of green chili from the New Mexico stand, and my sister got some guac and chips. Parking was pretty easy, and after walking around we were able to stash our stuff and head on to brunch on State Street. Great weather-good times. Lots of really cool live music too...
