Messy and Picky

Several weeks into spring, the city's farmers' markets run by The Food Trust and Farm to City are about to open up once again. While the Fair Food Farmstand and Sue's Produce (haven't been making it out to the farmers' markets at Fitler Square and Clark Park at all) has been keeping our kitchen lively through the winter, we can't wait until all that fresh and local produce starts to pour into the city.

The biggest market of them all opens this Sunday, the 4th: The Headhouse Market at Headhouse Square on 2nd St between Pine and Lombard Sts under the shambles [pictured above]. Not sure how many vendors will be there the first week, but it'll eventually be around 30 or so.

Starting the next week are the following markets:
Tuesdays starting May 6th:

• South & Passyunk Farmers' Market, open from 2pm - 7pm

Wednesdays starting May 7th:

• Aviator Park, 20th & Race Sts, open from 3pm - 7pm

Thursdays starting May 8th:

• Farimount Ave Farmers' Market, 22nd St & Fairmount Ave, open from 3pm -7pm
  Our favorite market for it's DELICIOUS bread, ketchup, eggs and cookies!

Saturdays starting May 10th:

• Rittenhouse Farmers' Market, south side of Walnut St between 18th and 19th Sts, open from 10am - 3pm
• Clark Park Farmers' Market, Baltimore Ave & 43rd St, open from 10am - 2pm
• Fitler Square Farmers' Market, Pine & 23rd Sts, open from 10am - 2pm

Farm to City has their full list up here, but we can't find the full list for The Food Trust, but it should go up here soon.

Thanks to Danie for passing along a list of openings!
