North Union Farmers Market

Every Saturday morning, from shortly after dawn until noon, a "happening" takes place on Shaker Square along both sides of the rapid transit tracks. It consists of an incredible array of healthful,fresh locally grown/raised/prepared food; music (steel drums band, cellists, violinists, guitarists...); beautiful woodworking, handmade organic clothing and other arts/crafts; and hundreds of locals mingling and having a great time. In the 60s, it might have been called a "Be-in," but today, it's just a good time and one of the reasons why this community is such a great place to live.
