Coventry Farmers Market Part of Top Ten Farmers Markets

From USA TODAY- Travel

“Farmers markets aren’t just about veggies anymore. Some have become weekly festivals celebrating local food, says Gretchen Mais  of the American Farmland Trust. Markets help visitors experience a community like a local. “It’s a place for conversation and music and to taste the actual flavor of the region,” she says. “You may not be buying sweet chard on your vacation to bring back to your hotel, but a lot of times you can buy a salad from the market to have right there.” She shares some standout sites with Larry Bleiberg  for USA TODAY.”

Coventry (Conn.) Regional Farmers’ Market

“This classic New England market feels a bit like a county fair, with both produce and a petting zoo. It’s located on the Nathan Hale homestead, a Connecticut state park named for the Revolutionary War patriot executed by the British for espionage. During its June through October run, it attracts 75,000 visitors.”
