Wouldn’t you rather stroll colorful outdoor stalls on a sunny day than roll your cart around a grocery store or wander around the mall with its bad lighting and piped in music? Coming to the Farmer’s Market makes shopping a pleasure rather than a chore. It’s a community hub—a place to meet up with your friends, bring your children, or to just get a taste of the unique coastal fare that our beautiful island has to offer.
