Then we went under the tent area to set up our yoga towels (be sure to bring your own). We were then invited to carry the goats from the pen. I tried to do this but some of the baby goats are more like teenagers so they were getting pretty big. The yoga instruction was good and very suitable for the goat environment. The goats were moreso food driven then they were curiosity driven (which made this a bit different from puppy yoga) but still a cool experience overall. I think $30 is a good price for the experience and it's cool that the petting zoo is included as well.

Ebt info: For years, I went to the farmers market at the…read moreold location. Recently, I learned about the ebt benefits of shopping at the farmers market and I was so excited to check it out. I have now been four or five times this summer. They match up to 15 dollars a week at Lexington farmers market. You can use this money at any booth! Your only limit is that you can't buy hot prepared food. You can buy frozen tamales, frozen dumplings etc. go to the farmers market manager tent, present your food stamp card and tell them the amount you would like pulled off your food stamp card. If you decide you want 15 dollars, they'll match your 15! They give you paper money that doesn't expire, so if you don't spend all the money you can save it for next week or next month or whatever works for you. There is also another program that is included with ebt, right now it's 40 dollars a month (minimally, I think) that you can use at select booths (Kelley farms, busa, farmer Dave & I think stillmans farms, maybe another I'm forgetting) if you use this, you hand them your ebt card directly. They will run your card directly at the booth. The money you spend out of this 40 will be put back on your ebt card for the month. I suggest using this money first so you have time to use the replenished amount on your card. This does not roll over month to month, so use it up! Review of farmers market: I absolutely adore this farmers market. It's spread over a flat piece of field with tons of parking on worthen road. There are some booths that come every few weeks, but there are always great booths with produce, baked goods, dairy and fish. I absolutely love Kelley farms. It's an organic Asian greens and vegetables tent. The owners are a lovely married couple. We got the best bok choy and Chinese tomatoes. We got absolutely giant scallions that were delicious grilled, but are also so good in stirfry, quiche and salads. If you don't know what something is, ask! The owner will explain anything you need. She's great! She let me sample a tomato (it was pretty big!) and it was so so yummy. I bought a bag and immediately came home and made a tomato salad. Kelley farms is my go-to now, everything is so fresh, so yummy and elevates any meal your preparing. I got a (very affordable) pound of haddock that was so fresh and yummy. They were so welcoming and answered all my questions. Busa farms is always packed with delicious produce. The fruit and vegetable options are extensive. The booth always looks fantastic. They are so friendly. I forget which booth it was, but one booth has delicious scones and zucchini loaves. They are also very organized and have beautiful produce. The farmers market managers are always on site, so friendly and do a great job remembering returning patrons. On super hot days, they have staff handing out cold towels to the staff running all the booths and I love seeing that they take care of each other. For farmers market week they had performers for kiddos and live music. I appreciate the work they put into making this farmers market a community hot spot and not just another grocery trip. There are also art booths that come and sell handmade art. Last week there was a ceramics booth with absolutely stunning mugs, stoneware and art. Tania, (the woman who runs the booth) teaches ceramics classes in Lexington for both children and adults. 8 week sessions, very affordable. Tania was so friendly, happy to answer questions and welcoming. She and her husband made it clear that all art levels are welcome. I signed up for a session before I even left the market. I highly suggest Lexington farmers market!

You can get fresh veggies at one stand, fresh fish at another, fresh beef at a third, and sample some wine and cheese at others! There is no lack of fresh bread or baked goods for sale, and even some crafters at the market. And don't worry if its too hot outside because there is a gelato stand and plenty of stands that sell fresh lemonade. The place is always hopping even at 2pm or 530pm! I wish their hours were later because it was always tough getting here after work. There is plenty of metered parking on the surrounding streets and also right off the bike trail.

My friend and I wound up in the overflow a little after 11am when the event started. I've always seen signs around when I'm driving in the area for other events or goods that they are selling. In the fall they seem especially popular as well for pumpkins and fall activities. The market area is brightly lit. Given the neighborhood, as everyone else has commented expect prices to be at a premium. The samples we tried at the Strawberry Festival were tasty. My favorite was the short cake. They also offered tickets at $1/ticket for some other paid offerings such as their ice cream which I skipped. They had someone dressed up as the Green Monster so that was a fun photo op for the family too. The event had a lot of staff so each station was moving. In fact one of the owners/managers came by seeing a long queue near the entrance by the pasta said we could walk around to the other stations since no one should be waiting in a line (ignore the line to park and get in haha.) I wouldn't necessarily go out of my way to visit but it's an option for local. I've also gone to Wagon Wheel which is smaller for seasonal / market type items.

Next to a very cool silo and old farmhouse, as well as fields of various crops, its a very "post card-esque" scene. I was finally swayed to stop on my way home one day (I drive by every single day, morning and afternoon) with a craving for fresh corn. I was greeted very enthusiastically by Kim, who was full of information and tips for the produce. She even convinced me to try the corn raw - "gasp" - a crazy thought! What if there are worms! Oh noes! There were, of course, no worms. This corn was unbelievable. I don't actually know why people cook corn - except maybe to melt butter on it - becuase this could be eaten right of the stalk like you would lettuce or carrots or peppers. Damn good stuff. They have a surprisingly big variety of fruits and veggies in the stand, as well as fresh eggs. Everything I picked up here was fresh, delicious, and quite cheap. I even got a $1 coupon for my next visit - which, I must say, is a very smart marketing idea for a farm stand. I look forward to every visit here - always very friendly staff, selection, and scenery.

We stumbled upon this place by accident on our Ice Cream Adventures. We really didn't spend too much time here because other things were planned for the day. What we did see we really liked & will come back here another time to explore in more detail. What we did do was to check out their country farm store & picks up 2 pints of ice cream to go. The Mint Chocolate Chip & Strawberry Rhubarb Crisp were both Great! To make it worth your trip you can check out 2 other good places that are close by Ponyhenge in Lincoln - a Kitchy roadside attraction that's Free. There are Rocking Horses that mysteriously multiply & rearrange themselves. There's also Dairy Joy in Weston that's been there for over 60 years that has an old-school classic Creamsicle soft serve, Java berry & the classic marble twist vanilla and chocolate.

They recently renovated, upgrading the charming farm stand to a full on rustic market. Fresh veggies, coffee station, frozen goods, jams, chocolate goodies and more. I usually come for the little walk around the farm to see what's growing, the u-pick flower garden, to swing on the swing set, and to see if any farm animals are around. There's a parking lot and picnic tables scattered around. Pricing is reasonable, u-pick is about $15, they used to charge by flower stem. They also host events and have activities for kids. Honestly, Weston is more of a suburb so it's a nice surprise for people when I tell them that there is actually more to see than large homes!
