If you haven't tried the Ballard Farmer's market lately, it is worth a visit. The vendors are offering more organic fruits and veggies than ever, and overall, the market seems to be expanding. Not only do you get to buy local, seasonal, just-picked produce, but you can have a lot of fun watching the street entertainers, other artisans, and other patrons! As some of the other reviewers have indicated, there is still enough room to move around, and this market is still dog-friendly so you see lots of dogs walking their humans here.

A browse through the Ballard Farmer's Market is a great way to spend an hour on a Sunday. It's spread out over a decent sized area, so there is less sensory overload than some really crowded markets. You'll see the same vendors there week after week and have your favorites. Ours include the Patty Pan Grill lady (love those huge quesadillas!), the jerusalem artichoke people, and the fellow who brings a live chicken in a cage to keep him company while he sells his organic eggs. Of course you can then make a side trip into the zillion shops in downtown Ballard. Good times.

I've been going to the Ballard Farmer's Market since it started out in the US Bank parking lot a few years ago. It's now become so large that it takes up a large portion of Ballard Avenue every Sunday. And how it's expanded! Flowers, fresh crepes, nuts, berries, vegetables, plants, bread, eggs, meat, oysters, condiments - you name it, it's probably there. I used to go to the University Market but stopped since this market rivals the selection found in the U district.
