Many communities in the Northwoods hold weekly farmers markets offering a wide variety of fresh vegetables, fruits, baked goods and more.
In WXPR’s new seasonal series “Rooted Up North”, we’re highlighting our local farmers markets and sharing what you’ll be able to find.
In this episode, WXPR's Katie Thoresen talks with Antigo Farmers Market President Vicky Adamski who has been part of the market for 18 years.
In addition to the wide range of produce and artisan works you can find at the farmers market, Adamski also wanted people to know they have spots for non-profits that would like to promote or fundraise for their organization.
The Antigo Farmers Market is open Saturdays from 8:00 a.m. to noon at the pavilion at Peaceful Valley Park.
Need some inspiration for what to do with some of the radishes you might find at the market? Buffy's Northwoods Kitchen is bringing you some recipe ideas all summer long.
