USA Today thinks a Rhode Island farmers market is among the best in the country
The Hope Street Farmers Market is open until Oct. 26.
If you enjoy exploring farmers markets, it’s worth traveling to Rhode Island to experience Hope Street Farmers Market, which was just named one of the 10 best farmers markets in America by USA Today.
Hope Street Farmers Market was the only New England market on the publication’s top 10 list. The market is open until Oct. 26.
“In Providence, Rhode Island, the Hope Street Farmers Market runs May through October on Wednesday afternoons and Saturday mornings in Lippitt Memorial Park with 48 full-time and four guest vendors,” USA Today wrote. “There’s organic produce, freshly-caught seafood, flowers, locally roasted coffee, small-batch cheese and pasture-raised meat. Try not to get caught on a dog leash as you sip a juice from Fully Rooted featuring cold-pressed produce from many of the surrounding vendors.”
Farmers markets, “the heart of a city’s culinary pulse,” are a great way to shop local, meet the farmers growing your food, and see the inspiration for seasonal restaurant dishes created by area chefs, according to the publication.
