Wednesday we did a walkthrough at the Duluth Farmer's Market on the corner of 14th Avenue East and Third Street. Susie's parents met at this Farmer's Market way back when. The market is now a century old, with a lot of history under that roof.
In recent years it seems that a lot of new "Farmer's Markets" have sprung up in the Twin Ports, but none compare to those glory days when this market was moving truckloads of produce.
One thing for sure, growing up on a farm teaches you a lot about what real work is. Picking cukes when its in the mid-thirties and raining may not be the most fun you've ever had, but you do what you have to do to get everything picked and washed so it looks desirable come Saturday morn.
Much more can be said, as always. Here are the hours so. you can check it out. There's something for everyone.
