Summer is coming, and we’re looking forward to the farmers markets all over the Beehive State. But who says you have to wait for summer to buy fresh, local produce? The Winter Market at Rio Grande in downtown Salt Lake City is open now.
During the winter and spring months when it’s too cold for the Downtown Farmers Market to set up shop at Pioneer Park, you can head to the Winter Market at the Rio Grande Depot. It’s located at 300 S. Rio Grande Street in Salt Lake City.
