Reviews for: Historic Downtown Burlington Farmers' Market

We drove to this market this week and really enjoy it. Very nice vendors and nice selection of many kinds of produce, local honey and fresh food. It is worth the drive.

We attend 3 different farmers markets weekly and Burlington is very unique. You can see the vendors are hand picked for their specialties, it is not a greedy organization that simply wants to get as many vendors in to make as much money as they can. Burlington Farmers Market is very special. It has that fresh, friendly atmosphere. I LOVE IT, THE VERY BEST!!!

The market has not only brought fresh/local produce to the City of Burlington, it has supported local farmers, brought foot traffic to downtown Burlington, and has been a great community event. It has also been a wonderful teaching venue for buying local, how far does your food travel, and local residents tring foods they had not. It is alot of fun on the fourth Thursday of each month to see the Burlington Area Car Club bring down their beautiful collector cars. Listening to music, watching kids dance in the park and people building community is wonderful.

Its location next to the library in a beautiful park and its nice mix of vendors, all near its historic district, make attendance an extreme pleasure.

The market has a wide variety of products for sale, is right in the heart of downtown, and is within walking distance.

It is fabulous.... I just love the different products all of the vendors have. The market has brought something great to Burlington.

I have been a part of the market for 2yrs now and have seen it grow considerably. We have a wonderful variety of vendors from locally grown meat, eggs and veggies to handcrafted jewelry, soaps, stained glass and aprons all from local artists. You can stroll through historic downtown Burlington and listen to live music as you shop for your favorite produce or craft items. It's the best market I have seen in our area.

I have been waiting and waiting for a farmer's market of this quality for Burlington. I don't have to drive to Madison or Milwaukee. The food and products are outstanding and I look forward to it weekly. It is a wonderful setting and a gathering on a weekly basis. It is reasonable and open to anyone. The produce is very high quality: much organice and hand made items. I have only missed one week so far.

I love the fresh fruits and vegies,also the very different things that can be found there. so many talented people.

The Burlington Framers Market has a large variety of vendors & is open even in questionable weather so I can still shop weekly!

Because it's got so many fresh and wonderful locally grown and made items available. I was able to get different kinds of fresh vegetables that I would never see in a grocery store.

I love all the different things that are offered there and all the friendly people. I also like the location. It is so convenient.

I grew up in the Burlington area and have enjoyed buying from farmer's markets in the area I now live. Farmer's markets are good for communities and our personal health. BUY LOCAL! whenever possible.

Great variety. Well-organized. A real "plus" for our historic downtown!

I love the Burlington Farmers Market, and my kids love going, too. It has become a part of our Thursday routine. The fresh food is absolutely wonderful. I would love to see the Farmer's Market in Burlington at least 2 days a week.

Great people, great layout and great products. The location is perfect, a true, small town feel.

Wonderful locally grown produce and handmade items can be purchased while walking through a quaint park. Great family activity for any Thursday night!

It has the friendliest vendors/customers around. The location is perfect and every week it seems to be getting bigger and bigger. A great place to bring your family or meet your friends.

Many fresh and delicious items all lovingly displayed in beautiful surroundings at great prices!

as afirst year vendor there I love the friendlness and helpfulness of the market staff, other vendors and consumers. It is in a great location and the background music is relaxing. I'll be back next year without a doubt

I Love fresh vegatables and they have them at very affordable prises, which is important during these rough times.

I believe in buying locally and this is an excellent opportunity to buy local products. Lets help our own farmers.

The farmers market in Burlington has brought such and old world charm to our community. It has brought our community together as well as brought visitors in to our community that normally would have not stopped. The combination of warm friendly people, food, gorgeous plants and live entertainment makes it more than just a stop.....it's a great way to spend an evening.

I love the market and its location downtown Burlington is a great venue. We buy most of our veg and an occasional bakery there.

I love, love, love this market! It is so nice after work on Thursdays to wander down and see everything that is being offered, talk to the people, and enjoy the wonderful food and misc for sale!

I think it is a great thing for the community - where else can you get fresh vegetables, plants, bakery, etc. We can come every week to purchase whatever we need fresh. We also come the car show every 4th Thursday and enjoy the evening with friends. Keep up the good work.

Great variety of fruits veggies, flowers music, and everything a small town offers.

Two years ago some individuals in Burlington got together and started a farmers market downtown. It started out with a few vendors and the idea was to promote local farmers and locally grown produce ect. It has grown over the last couple of years up to a point where last week they had close to 2,000 people attend!!! This event has been an incredible boost to our downtown area and it continues to grow each and every week. The event is held every Thursday night in the library square downtown. If you have not been there it is a great place to go and pick up fresh locally grown produce, fresh baked goods, homemade pickles, relishes, chocolates ect. It is also just a fun place to bring the family and have a relaxing evening. The kids can run around and play with others, you can pick up fresh produce ect and sit down with the family and enjoy a fresh sandwichÂ?.

It's a great place to get fresh produce & baked goods and people their are very friendly with a old town feel.

It is great to have something like this in a small town like Burlington. We love it.

Nice to have this fresh market with so much variety so close. I particularly appreciate that they support Wisconsin businesses!

It is wonderful to have fresh local produce and to be able to enjoy a family-friendly event!

Great community event! Wonderfully fresh produce and other unique hand made products!

It's local and offers some unique products (home made dog treats, a baked potato bar among others) as well as the fresh produce and plants!

They have great local support. The vendors are very dedicated and make sure we can purchase the very freshest produce.

I like to be able to by locally grown produce. The location is awesome! It is also nice to be able to meet up with friends and walk around to check out the new things. Stop and check it out!!!!!!

Awesome! Every week there is something new. I love that you can go and buy locally grown produce. I encourage everyone I know to check it out.

so much good fresh food. Great variety, new stuff every week. Wonderful atmosphere, music in the park. Best thing ever!

Fantastic market, great location and the day and times make it easily accessable. Great variety of items.

I like buying grass fed meat directly from the farm because it's healthier and I know the animals had a good life. I also like buying directly because the farmer did the work and they should get the profits, not middlemen. This market also has really good chicken brats!

I love that I can get fresh, local products at the best reasonable prices. Plus they taste absolutely fantastic.

It features a great variety of homemade items along with fresh, locally grown produce. It's convenient, reasonably priced, well-organized and fun!

I love purchasing fresh food grown by local farmers. I am able to discover first hand if their products are truly organic. I love the diversity of vendors and products at the Burlington Farmers Market and the addition of awesome music and tasty treats makes for a perfect thing to do on Thursday afternoons!

Community is very supportive and super friendly. Always great vendors with great products. A comfortable atmosphere compared to some markets city farmer markets like Brookfield and Cedarburg.

I love the fresh produce, the varity is great, I even purchased a chinese broccoli that I haven't ever seen anywhere. The bread is outstanding and the arts and crafts are beautiful and affordable. I bought a bird house hand made by a husband and wife that is just adorable, It's called the tweet motel. There are a wide varity of plants, organic meet's game and buffalo meat. The atmosphere is upbeat but most of all your right in the center of town with all the wonderful shops and restaurant's. I love Burlington Footwear they have the best deal's and the highest qulity of shoe's, hand bags, Clothing etc... Be sure to check out maxwell street days this weekend for the greatest deals on earth.

we love are market , it brings all walks of life to our city. The people who come to the market really enjoy the fresh breads , flowers, ice cream, olives, soaps, and meats and much more.

Not only does the market offer a diverse array of produce and fresh-baked goods, it adds in fun entertainment for satisfaction of every sense. It's THE place to be on Thursdays!

The Historic Downtown Burlington Farmers' Market located in the "Heart of Burlington" is a valuable asset to the downtown specialty shopping experience!

I had the pleasure of visiting Burlington Market in 2008 (on a trip from ohio) I was impressed, and found it to be customer friendly, clean and organized I also purchased gifts to bring home to friends.See you in Sept. 2009 Dean Hicks (OHIO)

It's like the social event of my week, while helping to support my local growers. The merchants are very friendly and helpful, with great tips. This has opened up my world into trying out new products that I may not have otherwise ever ventured to try!

I love the diversity of product. The vendors are so friendly and welcoming and they work hard to make their booths attractive,

The Burlington farmers Market brought the town back to life! Folks are gathering, meeting old friends and making new friends. Burlington didn't have a "Place" to meet before this. The town is eating healthy!

It has grown year after year, and has some of the best fresh produce I've ever seen. I look forward to visiting it every week just to see what's new.

This market has great prices and very fresh produce! I love the fresh from the garden tomatoes! There is something for everyone.

The Burlngton Farmers' Market is the best way to support local producers, save energy (because I can WALK from my office rather than drive) and I know I'm getting the freshest, healthiest food for my family. I also enjoy the crafters Â? love the garden art! Â? and organic bakeries. This is a wonderful addition to the community and I hope it grows more and more each year.

Fresh produce is important to me and my family. Thursday's Farmer's market in Burlington's unique small town setting makes for a great family outing. We recently visited and the coordinators had invited a local car club. This was an added treat for our family. Thank you for supporting our local folks and for putting the home back in hometown.

Because it is so fun and neat. It's got a lot of cool stuff and friendly people.

The market has brought fresh, local produce to Burlinton. It has become "Thursday Night Live", a great community event.

Fresh vegetables, fruits, breads, flowers, and all that it brings! Great food, good times, and healthy living while enabling our local farmers to directly profit from their hard work and diligence. It brings people from all around together in downtown Burlington bringing awareness to visitors of our quaint historical community.

Burlington is a community in every sense of the word. The Farmers' Market is central to all activity in the town and offers great buys as well as that hometown feeling of neighbors meeting neighbors. Reminds me of a time when life was less complicated, more directly person-to-person. Love it!

The setting on the square in beautiful downtown Burlington is picturesque and the mix of vendors, including a few crafters, is terrific.

Small town brings a wonderful Farmer's Market with things such as natural buffalo from a local farm, homemade natural soaps, Wildflour bakery and much much more.

Its great to have something downtown Burlington, for the families and locals to enjoy in the summer.

Burlington Market has only been open two years and continues to get better each week. Lots of local produce as well as locally raised meats, and crafts. I love that it is from 4:00 to 7:00 in the evening. It makes it a family affair.

I love the local vendors. Everyone is so nice and so helpful. They are knowledgeable about their products and how to make them work for you.

I try not to miss it every week. Not only is a social affair.... it is a chance to support local growers and the community. It is in a neat little parklike square... and the variety is fantastic. We even have live music sometimes. I love everything about it!

full of great fresh fruits and vegetables and a lot of unique items. Fun to shop.

I support Historic Downtown Burlington Farmers' Market because I truly believe that every city/town/village/etc deserves access to a market that supports the growing of locally grown produce, and produce that is guaranteed fresh.

I help raise two of my grandchildren and want them to eat fresh, healthy foods. We enjoy picking out our bounty together. Many of our weekly menus are selected for the fresh produce we find. My grandson Zak loves nothing better than helping prep and cook. My grand-daughter Trystta has an artist's eye and devours the diverse colors, displays and unique food finds. We all sample away to our tummy's delight. It's a wonderful family time.

It is a great way to eat our local farmers produce, and get to know the people who grow it. It is a healthy and fun way for people to get together!

We look forward to Thursdays so we can stroll through the market and enjoy the smells of fresh herbs and happy faces. We go to many farmers markets and the ambiance here is delightful. Situated in a parklike setting.... with that small town feel, makes me proud to be a part of this community. Well thought through when the planning went into this. Many markets are in parking lots where the feel just is not that of what a market should be. We like the variety of being able to eat dinner (yummy potatoes) and have dessert... all in the same area. Thanks for this weekly treat!
