Saturdays at the Old Town Farmers’ Market
 Estelle Eisen - RiveraCuale.com
| | Rain or shine, Vallarta's Old Town Farmers' Market is open from 10 am to 1 pm every Saturday through July 31st. | |
Without a doubt, the must do activity on a Saturday morning is a visit to the Old Town Farmers’ Market. In addition to seeing everyone you know, you will experience a bit of sensory overload as you make the circuit of all the goodies being offered.
As you enter, there is a full butcher shop set up, with every deli item you could want, from pancetta to fresh horseradish, and gourmet cuts of meat, to fabulous sandwiches. As you continue your stroll through, you can order such delights as Pad Thai or green curry chicken from a lovely Thai lady, ready to go when you are done shopping.
You can pick up organic greens for your week’s salads, high altitude coffee, exotic fruits, homemade pickles, pastas, salsas, breads, sauces, jellies, ready to bake pot pies, cheesecakes, and other desserts, and so much more. I could go on and on. The varieties are endless. It is a foodie’s dream.
You can find any number of wonderful handmade crafts, as well as bags made of recycled materials, all of which make great gifts. Many of the things you buy benefit our local charities. In addition, you can adopt a homeless animal. If you think of it, you can probably find it at the Farmers’ Market.
Being in Old Town, the Market is a leisurely walk or quick drive from Rivera Cuale. It is located on Pulpito, half a block off Olas Altas, and one block up from Los Muertos Beach in the new Paradise Community Center. It is open every Saturday from 10-1. There are new vendors being added every week. The Farmer’s Market will be open until July 31st, and then will resume next high season in early November.
