This traditional European-style Christmas market features over 60 vendors, including artisan crafts, handmade gifts, and Wisconsin specialty foods. There were so many unique items to browse, from ornaments and décor to homemade treats. The food and drink options were fantastic -- local food trucks like EZ Tiki, Flip's Mini Donuts, Tots on the Street, and Milwaukee Pretzel Company, plus local beer, made it easy to snack while walking. The weather was decent, which made strolling through the market enjoyable, though it was definitely busy with lots of holiday shoppers. Live music and festive decorations added to the cheerful atmosphere. Parking was convenient with several nearby lots, and the layout made it easy to explore despite the crowds. A fun, lively holiday event -- perfect for shopping, enjoying seasonal treats, and getting into the Christmas spirit!

I recently stopped by Pete's Fruit Market for the first time after hearing about it. As soon as I…read morewalked in, I saw buckets of vegetables: peppers, tomatoes, squash, you name it. Most buckets seemed to be about 6-8 inches in diameter and prices ranged from $1 to $5. I only wish they offer smaller buckets instead of such a big bucket. It is hard to buy in bulk with smaller household and I don't like to freeze produce. I was curious about the quality of the produce, but I wasn't too impressed. For example, the apricots looked a little banged up--kind of like the "misfit" produce I've seen before. There was upbeat Mexican music playing, which gave the place a fun vibe, and the store itself isn't that big. A security guard was stationed outside. They had yellow-flesh watermelon at $0.99/lb, and giant seeded watermelons for $16 each--which felt pricey, especially since I had just come from Costco where I got a decent-sized watermelon for $6 (though admittedly smaller than the ones at Pete's). I also noticed mangoes going for $2 each, which again felt steep. I had been hoping to find some Mexican pastries, but nothing really stood out, and there weren't any prepared foods available. However, I saw they got a catering menu which I thought it might be good to have a food court selling those items. I was expecting something more like La Michoacana or Fiesta stores in Texas, but this wasn't it. In the end, I just picked up a few Mexican candies like Pulparindo and called it a day. I was a bit disappointed with the fruit selection, especially the lack of tropical options. On the plus side, they have a fairly large, gated parking lot, which is convenient. I'm glad I visited, but not sure I'll be rushing back anytime soon.

So many different vegetables and fruits, prices were lower than other grocery stores. Towards the back is the meat and dairy, rows of grocery aisles of Hispanic and American food. Opposite from the vegetables is the hot deli and cold food. So many to choose from, there's someone behind the counter and there's also self service, just grab a box and choose whatever you want. They will weigh it. The cash register is in the front, over 10 cashiers available. There were many people shopping, busy, but not crowded. Store is big and clean.

Most of the blueberries were way too soft and lacked any flavor. I followed the instructions for the peaches and laid them on my counter, stem down. They started to wrinkle and mold within a couple of days before ever becoming fully ripe. By day 3, I tried to salvage what I could for jam and ended up with only 5lbs 3oz of peach flesh. The flavor was awful, though. I've purchased better peaches at Walmart. This was by far the worst $75 I've ever spent on fruit, and I don't plan to ever purchase from them again.

It's heavy on charm (nestled near the Tosa Village and bordered by lush green trees) and has all we're looking for in a farmers market. True, they don't have several venders selling, flowers, say. But, here are 2-3, which is plenty for me. There's usually options for various produce, flower venders, baked goods (usually a vegan baker as well), cheese, dip, meats, coffee, popcorn, etc. On our last trip, we got a gorgeous bouquet of peonies, king oyster mushrooms, a bag of greens, and two containers of greek almond dip (garlic and dill). We also discovered there was a new vendor there serving breakfast sandwiches. We had already eaten but are now already looking forward to next weekend to give them a try. They also usually have some sort of live entertainment to enjoy while you wander. A gem of a farmers market in the midst of a gem of a community. Get to it!

Teas, dried herbs, noodles, fresh baked goods, snacks, utensils and cookware. There's a lot packed into this little shop. The aisles can feel cramped at times, so patience is key. Take your time, maybe you'll discover some new! I really love the convenience of pre-sliced meats for cooking hotpot. Pre-packaged soup bases are also amazing. I'm a fan of little sheep brand. They also carry my favorite brand of milk tea from Japan. The wall of ramen is also impressive, as there are many varieties to choose from.
