Open Saturdays & Sundays April-November 6 a.m.-1 p.m.

In the heart of St. Paul’s Lowertown is a farmers market older than Minnesota itself. If you’re looking for the best in local goods, this is your place—all produce must be grown within 50 miles, and even packaged goods have to be made in Minnesota or neighboring Wisconsin. Spend some time in the market, then explore the capitol city’s up-and-coming downtown neighborhood.
