Centennial Lakes Farmers Market Makes Metro Top 10

The is the eighth best in the Twin Cities, according to a recent City Pages Top 10 list.

The Edina farmers market has only been around for three years, but was apparently good enough to garner attention from the publication. 

City Pages praised the charm of the itself, which they said you can admire in the process of snagging delicious produce:

A trip to this Edina-based farmers' market has more to offer than goods from several dozen vendors. The park itself is part of the charm, as you can escape into its 24-acre landscape, visit the lake, travel the paths, and generally get a taste of nature before returning to the rat race. This younger (it started in 2010) market is still growing but features a mix of fresh-produce vendors from around the area and an assortment of ready-to-eat edibles, from pizza to pork chops to hot dogs. All perfect for a day in the sun in the Twin Cities.

A number of other local farmers markets made the cut as well, including those in Hopkins and Richfield. Check out the full Top 10 list, courtesy of City Pages.

If you're interested in checking out the market for yourself, it runs from 3-7 p.m. every Thursday (through Sept. 23) on the walkways outside of Hughes Pavilion in the park.
