What a great way to spend the morning! So much history and excellent food - Barbara's energy and knowledge, friendships around the market and obvious passion made this an experience we'll never forget. Thank you again Barbara!

Our tour of the Original Farmer's Market, with Andrew as our guide, was really great. [...] I got exactly what I was hoping for from the tour - learned a lot about the market, and got to sample a wide variety of food from various businesses.

I was so impressed with Lisa’s knowledge of Farmer’s Market. Such fascinating info and yummy food. My six friends and I had a blast. I would recommend this tour to anyone who loves hometown history and eating.
