Slightly warmer temperatures have us longing for the warmth and bounty of summer. Of course, we all know that this warm-up is just a tease – a test of your mettle as a Wisconsinite. There’s probably at least one more snow in the cards and you’d be silly to put your winter coat away yet.

But winter and not-quite-spring are no reasons to forgo the amazing fresh produce and farm-fresh products that we have in abundance here in Wisconsin. There are great winter farmers markets all across the state, though the very best might be the one in Appleton.

Please note, the farmers market will not open for the 2020 season.

The indoor farmers market in Appleton takes place near where their stellar outdoor market is. It's at City Center Plaza, 10 E. College Ave. on Saturday from November through May, 9 a.m.-12:30 p.m.

This large indoor farmers market features up to 50 vendors selling fresh fruits & vegetables, meats & dairy, breads & baked goods, specialty foods and handcrafted items. While you're downtown, you can visit the local restaurants, museums and shops that are on offer.

There's everything you could ever want at this awesome market. You'll find the winter vegetables and early spring stuff, plus canned fruits and veggies.

When there's less fresh produce, that's the best time to sample and stock up on cheese and other amazing dairy products.
