I stopped here to check them out around lunch time looking to see what they had and some lunch. I was hoping to find some hot peppers of the exotic kind.The market was not that big but not as small as the one I passed on earlier that looked pathetic. This one was mostly vegetables with few fruits and flowers compared to the other farmers markets that I have been to. There was none of the soaps, honeys and specialty items either. There is very little prepared food with a Chinese place that had egg rolls and crab Rangoon while the other end had roasted corn and shaved ice, that's as good as it got. No food trucks or carts of any kind, there is plenty of people traffic to warrant one.My hot pepper hunt fell flat and a basket of jalapeños for $2 was as exotic as it got while lunch was one egg roll and one crab Rangoon for $2 so it was mostly a bust today on this trip.This Farmer marker ended up being mostly vegetables so if that's what you are looking for than your good. If your looking for a grander Farmers Market with excellent variety than try the Greenfield one, way better.

This is my front yard. They have a large group of Hmong farmers who come every Tuesday and Thursday and Sunday. They sell a good variety of stuff, but the prices can be a little high if you ask me. I wish The National would come over and sell coffee, and perhaps some food vendors would join the party to make it feel more like what I am used to. People in Milwaukee are lame and never go out of the 2-3 "hip" areas, so since this is literally my front yard - get your chicken shit butts over here and get some red beets. If you were not such a bunch of lame-o's Milwaukee, this area would look like Humboldt Park, Chicago, or Williamsburg, Brooklyn now! Get on it! Oh, and bring the kids since soon we will have a giant new playground - it looks amazing!

If your objective at a Farmer's Market is to buy the freshest produce at the best prices directly from the farmers that raised said food, then this is the place for you.There's not a lot of pomp and circumstance at this market. Once in a while a local musician my be entertaining people, or a local ethnic food truck may park nearby. But the heart and soul of this market is the hardworking farmers and their crops, which is what I love about it.I also love the diversity in selection. Because many of the farmers are Asian or Hispanic, there is a plethora of foods that you may not find at other markets. Asian pears, Thai eggplant, golden beets, and chili peppers in more varieties than I knew existed are some of my favorites. And swiss chard, radishes, kohlrabi, and many different greens are standard fare.And I've never seen it over-crowded and it's never been a challenge to get to all the tables.Also worthy to note is that this market runs on Tuesday, Thursdays and Sundays from 8am-ish to 4pm-ish. Sometimes Saturdays are convenient and this is one of very few Sunday markets in the area.

This market's a little different from others around town. There are around 20 Hmong farmers who are selling the standards along with some things I have not come across elsewhere: Green finger chiles, odd greens and corn with fungus (Huitlacoche). I've found that these vendors are very friendly and more willing to deal. I picked up a bag of summer squash for three bucks and the lady thru in a couple ears of corn (no fungi) too. Fresh flowers are a buck or two cheaper than other markets.

Sunday, Tuesday and Thursday 8 am to 5 pm officially, but most of the vendors pack up around 3ish. The farmers are mostly Hmong, so the produce is generally SouthEast Asian, SouthEast Asian eggplant (though I have gotten Western style eggplant), really hot peppers (though I've gotten milder peppers), all sorts of greens without translation (part of the culinary adventure for me), onions, green onions, carrots, beautiful cut flowers (some edible), beans, tomatoes, strawberries, cherries (the fruit goes fast, never lasts past the morning), zucchini, squash, little potatoes, huge cucumbers, all of it very fresh, very cheap (I kind of feel like I'm stealing from them, everything costs only a dollar or two). This Farmer's Market was the brainchild of one of my neighbors, a lawyer named Jason Cleereman, who thought this would foster the local sense of community, and it really does seem to have worked out this way. In this mixed Anglo-Hispanic neighborhood, we all meet in the park on Farmer's Market days. Parking is easy, it's a small urban park with street parking all around, but if you're not from walking distance, it's a wonderful bicycling destination, as this is pretty close to both the Oak Leaf Trail, and the Hank Aaron trail. You can add an iced coffee sit-down at the nearby National Cafe, or a nice authentic Mexican lunch at Guadalajara, or Mexican-Puerto Rican at Cafe el Sol.http://www.facebook.com/pages/Walkers-Square-Farmers-Market/1737

Nearing the end of August, the produce is great. Things were priced very reasonably IMO. Positive vibes overall. You want baked goods, soaps, and cheese? Not your place.

Bring your reusable bag because you'll be taking a treasure trove of farm fresh goodies home. My favorite feature of this market is the diverse representation of Latino and Asian farmers selling produce in the heart of this Walker's Point neighborhood. Is for a great family friendly vibe. Where else can you find specialties like huitlacoche alongside standard fare such as green beans? I can't even begin to guess. The produce is always beautifully cleaned and irresistibly presented. All the farmers are friendly. In fact, one time I came they were having a potluck lunch and invited me to partake. I appreciate that the market is open on Sunday afternoons. I can't always make it to the Saturday markets throughout the city. So, it's nice to know I have more options. Check it or for yourself. I assure you it's a worthwhile visit. Amongst all the markets throughout the city, this one's a gem!
