Neighborhoods in Phoenix

"A small city just east of Phoenix, Mesa has a welcoming, small-town feel and a strong sense of community. The downtown is home to an array of restaurants, independent shops, lively weekend street markets, and colorful murals. But for anyone interested in the farm half of farm-to-table dining, the real draw of Mesa is the agricultural stops along the Fresh Foodie Trail, such as Queen Creek Olive Mill, Superstition Dairy Farm, The Orange Patch, and Schnepf Farms (known for its amazing peaches). You can spend an entire day hopping from farm to farm, sampling produce, and getting an intimate look at how Phoenix gets all of those delicious ingredients for its restaurants. Mesa also makes for a great base for exploring the Superstition Wilderness." - MATADOR_NETWORK
