as you may have read here, the athens farmers market is like none other in the state. it is the largest open-air market in ohio, and its goods are extremely unique to the athens-area.
sooo, you can bet i was thrilled to learn that south bend had their own farmers market! beau told me about it on wednesday (little sweetheart, he is) and i was ready to hop on over there that afternoon. buuuut, i can be a sweetheart too (muahahaha), so i told beau that i would wait till saturday so we could go together :)
saturday monring we marched our pretty little butts over there and let me tell you...this place was unreal. i'm not saying it was better than athens because, let's face it, athens is on a playing field all their own. no, the south bend farmers market was just different. it was more like a farmers market mixed with a little bit of Etsy - there was LOADS of stuff, not just food, and the place went on forevvvvveeeerrrrr. there were deli counters, italian bakeries, cupcake booths, vintage goods, and even handmade jewelry. i fell in love with this one chick - her jewelry pieces are absolutely to-die-for. her name is ali oesch, and you best believe i will be making a purchase (or two) with her very soon.
and to my dear athens - i still love you and your uniqueness :)
