Wendy
Jo's stand (shown on the right and below) is one of many in Lancaster's
Central Market. Central Market is the nation's oldest publicly-owned,
continuously-operated farmers market, delighting locals and visitors
on the same site since the 1730's. The current Central Market,
built in 1889, was designed by Philadelphia architect James Warner,
and is on the National Register of Historic Places.
At "Market"
(as the locals call it), you'll find everything from delicious
baked goods to locally-grown produce, from meats, fish, cheese
and fresh flowers to local artisans' crafts. Open on Tuesdays
and Fridays from 6:00 am until 4:00 pm and on Saturdays from 6
am until 2 pm, you'll always find something you love at Central
Market. |
