Dane County Farmers' Market

America's Biggest Farmers Markets Are Must-Visits

"I find this to be the largest producer-only farmers market in the U.S., held twice a week in a scenic circular layout around the Wisconsin State Capitol and hosting about 220 vendors at peak season. It’s a Saturday and Wednesday ritual that sells cheese curds, maple syrup, artisan baked goods, flowers, meats, and organic vegetables, and becoming part of the market is so coveted there’s a waiting list of up to two years for new vendors. Be sure to try the legendary Hot & Spicy Cheese Bread from Stella’s bakery and fresh, squeaky cheese curds from local dairies." - Veronica Stoddart
