You’ll stop at the Farmers Market which features more than 100 restaurants, grocers and tourist shops. It all began in July 1934, 18 farmers and merchants park their trucks on vacant Gilmore land, selling produce to local housewives. The idea was so successful that by Fall, the Farmers Market had stalls and shops, restaurants and special events. Today you’ll enjoy the variety of food options as you walk through the market. You can also shop or eat the adjacent shopping center, The Grove.
