Which market is this? Since I've moved back I've been looking for one and have only had luck at Wenninghoffs..

Great that Omaha is #6!! Â Pike Place is awesome. Don't know if Des Moines should be
# 2 . # 63 Port Orchard, Wa was pretty lame last summer. Everett, Wa blew them out of the water but wasn't listed. Enjoy going to the markets and Pike Place is downright awesome. Spent so much money there for our summer rental in Port Orchard.

Are all of Omaha's farmers markets run by the same group/company/people? Â :what: There's at least three that I can think of off the top of my head that go under this name: Aksarben, Downtown, and Village Point. And if they aren't then which one is this referring to?

Don't mean to be a dick but Lincoln's framers market is way better than Omaha's. Â I don't get this list.

They were ranked on ""What’s at the Market," "Street Credibility," and "When It’s Open.""

Sounds like a pretty serious survey.

The Farmer's Market in Olympia blows Omaha's out of the water. Â And it runs 4 days a week.

The Saturday Farmers Market in the Old Market.

The same company runs the Old Market Farmers Market, the Aksarben Farmers Market, the Omaha Summer Arts Festival, the Artsarben Art Fair, the Aksarben Holiday market and many other thinks. Its Vic Gutman, Gutman and Associates.

There used to be a place named The Garden Angel that would set up near 90th & Spaulding. Â I have not seen them in.. 4 years maybe? Â But he had some good stuff at reasonable prices.
