You know, if the farmer's market weren't so early in the day, I'd probably be there every weekend instead of once or twice in the season. And yes, I know that it's open 8 am to 1 pm but by 12 it seems like most of the vendors are packing it in. So, really I have to get there around 10 which means getting up at 8. I sound like I'm whining but I'd really like not to be out and about before 10 on the weekend.
Yet, sometimes I have a desperate need for fresh produce, fabulous crafts and musical entertainment, all of which I can get at the farmers market. I could try one of the other farmer's markets around town but that just seems like so much work. But if your interested a list of these are at
http://utahsown.utah.gov/FarmersMarkets.htm. I think I'll just stick to the one downtown.
They schedule different performances each week and have different cooking demonstrations. A schedule can be found at
http://www.downtownslc.org/events/farmersmarket/farmersmarketvisitors.htm. Last time I went the large group pictured was playing. They are a group from Mexico and sounded great.
On the south side of the park was a the local capoeira group doing a demonstration. Watching capoeira is a lot of fun but I'd probably just look like a fool if I tried it. I'll just stick to being a spectator. But, if you'd like to try it out then check out their web site
http://www.utahcapoeira.com/. Later gaters.
