We recently visited the covered open air market that offered everything from fresh fruits and vegetables to coffee beans, beer, cheese, handmade home goods, and plenty of delicious freshly prepared foods.

Whether you were in the mood for a crisp apple, a bag of locally roasted coffee beans, a cold craft beer, ora piece of handmade pottery, you were guaranteed to find it here.

With its vibrant energy, welcoming atmosphere, and diverse selection of goods and food, it is truly a gem in the heart...
