With the weather getting nicer, there are more and more opportunities for outdoor activities here in Austin. If you’re looking for the chance to be outside and pick up some local produce while you’re at it, look no further than Austin’s numerous farmers markets. In addition to seasonal produce, some farmers markets also feature chef demonstrations, artisan products, and music. There are several farmers markets going on throughout the week, with the largest number of options on Saturday mornings.
