Burlington Winter Farmers Market
When I think of farmers markets, I imagine reclining on the grass in shorts and sandals, listening to live music and chomping on samosas. But even when the weather isn't picnic-blanket-worthy, families can still enjoy local bounty, mellow music, crafts, baked goods and international cuisine.
Below is a sampling of farmers markets open for business through the winter months. Chomp away!
