Farm Fresh
Farmer’s markets are fabulous places for kids — full of sights and sounds and smells and tastes. For the most part, the dates below are when markets in our area were open for the spring, summer, and fall in 2012, which you can use to gauge dates for 2013; in a few cases, they have been updated for this season.
