Farm Fresh Flavor
If you’re looking for farmers markets where you can get some of the freshest fruit, vegetables, meat, cheese, plants, flowers, and other foods, here’s what you need to know.
Lavender Fields
Take just a few steps down the aisle, between rows and rows and rows of vibrant purple plants, and you’ll understand why lavender-lovers make a yearly pilgrimage to a little-known island just off the Door Peninsula. Washington Island is home to the region’s small-but-mighty lavender scene where you’ll find thousands of lavender plants flourishing in neat, uniform rows—as well as the Midwest’s largest lavender grower. Mid-July is the typical blooming season, and harvest time usually comes by mid-August, when the delicate and versatile flowers are transformed into artisan goods and delicacies to be sold at markets across the county.
