One good post deserves another! Inspired by Di's posting of farmers' markets in the Appleton area, here are the farmers' markets up in Green Bay, and like Di I will post any additional ones I find.

Downtown Green Bay

7am - Noon
On Monroe St., between Cherry and Pine streets

Broadway Farmers' Market
Wednesday Evenings (I couldn't find the dates, but I know it started on the 4th of June)

On Broadway, downtown Green Bay, between Dousman & Walnut

Oneida Farmers' Market
Thursdays from June 26th - October 9th
2pm - 6pm
Oneida One Stop

Appleton Farmers' Markets.

To elaborate on the comment I left for Missy a couple of days ago, I'd like to pass on some addresses of Farmers' Markets in the Fox Valley area. Each has a variety of fruits and veggies, so wherever you happen to be you'll find a great selection.

Get a Free Shopping Tote from Earthbound Farm!

Take Earthbound Farm's Conservation Quiz, score at least 9 out of 10 and they'll send you a free shopping tote! The questions are fairly easy if you have some knowledge about environmental issues, and if you get stuck there are links to articles with the answers.

Here's the fine print from the website:

Offer good for US and Canadian residents only, while supplies last. Quiz must be completed before Midnight PDT, April 30, 2008. One bag per mailing address. Bags will be shipped to recipients in June, 2008

More and more grocery stores are offering discounts if you bring your own bags (Festival gives me a nickel a bag!), so this is a gift that keeps on giving!
