Yes, there are still local farmers and some artisan vendors that sell great products but the market has added so many new vendors that it has changed the entire balance of the market.
We were shocked to see so many vendors that don't seem to fit into a farmers market. A couple franchises, cotton candy and snow cones, caramel corn and several vendors that are selling products that they don't produce themselves. What happened to healthy options?
It is apparent that the market has become a money making tool for the managment that runs the market.
We will not be returning to this market, at least until they are a bit more selective in their vendor list. It's really a shame that in the upscale neighborhood we live in, they have created the dollar store version of a farmers market.
