The U-District Farmers Market may just be the purest expression of a Seattle farmer's market. First of all, it's diverse - lots of items for sale; from veggies and fruits to crafts and cheeses. The selection is pretty amazing. Next, it's popular. So popular in fact that it closes down two full blocks of University Way between 50th and 52nd streets. And finally, it's year-round. So even on the worst winter day you'll find vendors willing to brave the elements in order to get you their fresh food. The market is kid friendly and free entertainment. Tips for going, park on a neighboring street and make sure to bring your own bag
