Visit Your Local Outdoor Market and Banish Winter Blues

As winter rolls into spring, it’s time to get outside and enjoy everything that your local outdoor market has to offer. Each open-air market has its own unique story that makes it a must-visit destination for locals and tourists alike. Whether you are in search of the perfect solo outing or looking for a place to take the whole family, outdoor markets make an ideal setting. What’s more, visitors are also doing something good by embracing all things local, which helps support small businesses throughout the community.  

The Advantages of Visiting an Outdoor Market in Spring 

With spring in the air, outdoor market season has officially begun. Take advantage of the warmer weather by swapping out your winter boots and heavy jackets for sneakers and your coolest pair of shades. Here are a few exciting things outdoor markets have to offer after a long and cold winter: 

• Find Everything on Your List: Outdoor markets provide the most unique one-stop shopping experience. From locally-grown produce and flowers, to handmade art and antiques, you are sure to find everything on your list. Spending time outdoors and enjoying all the outdoor market offerings is a perfect way to put that spring back in your step after a cold winter. 
• Support Local: When you buy from an outdoor market, you are supporting local farmers, artisans and small business owners. Putting money back into the community can help stimulate the local economy, preserve rural livelihoods and help locals grow their businesses.  
• Foster Healthy Communities: Outdoor markets often sell conventional and organic produce at much lower prices than big-chain supermarkets. This helps to give the community access to healthier food at a more reasonable cost. Farmers can also educate customers on various things like farming practices and how to prepare food.
