City Market

The City Market is a great place all of the time. However, on Saturday mornings, I really enjoy going down there to shop. There are rows and rows of booths all selling different things. You can browse a wide selection of veggies and fruits and the quality is always very fresh. Of course some booths have a better quality product than others. I love to get blackberries and rasberries down there. There are some stores that sell ethnic products also. In the spring the flowers are beautiful and there are often sellers with potted flowers all ready to go. Those pots full of color are actually a very good Mother's Day gift and quite affordable. There is one booth that sells fresh cut flowers and they have gorgeous boquets that are perfect to take for a hostess gift or to put in a vase for company over the weekend. There is often some booths that offer jewelry and usually someone selling grilled turkey legs. The atmosphere is very fresh and natural and it's just a very relaxing way to shop. more

We always go down to the city market on the weekends to pick up fresh fruits and vegetables, they always have a great selection at good prices and when you are done you can walk around to some of the shops. In the summer time they also have concerts down there, a very nice outdoor venue to check out some live music more

I love this area of town. On the weekends, you can find restaurants and clubs to go to. There are concerts scheduled at times. The City Market is just a fun area. On a weekend morning, you can go to the farmer's market and get fresh fruit and vegetables at a very affordable price. You can shop around and eat. Nice place to be. more

My wife and I both love to go to the city market, especially on the weekends. Here you can get the freshest fruits and vegetables at pretty reasonable rates. If you think that it is just a farmers market than you are mistaken. They have various vendors selling their wares. Clothing, antiques, or that record or cd that you believe no longer existed. I have heard that they do a lot of things during the week, but unfortunately I have never made it out there, except on weekends. more
