Small compared to the Farmers Market near Loring Park in Minneapolis but what do you expect for a small metro. area in north central Wisconsin? You can find about 20-30 vendors setting up shop just south of the VFW on River Drive every Saturday in the summer. There are some excellent fruit and vegetables available at what I would consider reasonable prices. Other categories of goods available: baked goods (abot 3 vendors), flowers, coffee (1 vendor). read more

I've been incredibly pleased with this Farmer's Market. I actually like that it's relatively small and not filled with junk. My previous Farmer's Market experiences were in Chicago and Dallas and gotta say - this one in Wausau is so much less of a pain in the ass. It's well spaced, it has local, seasonal and fresh produce. A couple of delicious meat vendors. Kettle corn, bakery items, honey, floral items, plants, coffee stand, some canned items, granola, some wool (maybe alpaca?) items and that's that. The way a FARMER'S market should be. Items that come from a, that's right - a FARM! It's easy to navigate and everyone has been very much a pleasure to work with. Ninepatch Farm sells their meat here and their chicken is excellent. We've enjoyed wonderful breads and cookies too. The local produce is of course seasonal and excellent. They do offer coins if you only have a debit/credit or even a food stamp card on you. The only problem is not all vendors seem to accept the coins. I really wish they all would. We love getting over there early on Saturday morning and walking around with our daughter. Everyone is so happy and friendly. Just a great way to kick off the weekend. read more
