I have never shopped at a farmers' market before, what can I expect to find at a farmers' market?
At the farmers' market expect to find a festive atmosphere and a wide array of fresh vegetables and fruits. You may also find baked goods, maple products, honey, eggs, farmstead cheeses, apple cider, jams and jellies, flowers, and more.
