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 additional to seasonal produce, some farmers markets also feature chef demonstrations, artisanal products, and music. There are several farmers markets going on throughout the week, with the largest number of options on Saturday morning.
