You're missing a bunch of them. Brookfield being one of the major ones not listed here. Menomonee Falls, Dousman, Oconomowoc, Delafield, Germantown, and more being the rest...

While I do not frequent them myself and I agree with your first points to some degree (it's hard to know where a lot of our produce comes from in the store), but how can you generalize participants in farmers markets in political sense?
"buy a food product from some smelly, unkept liberal at a Farmers Market." Really?
Tom Knox August 26, 2012 at 03:38 pm
At a farmer's market, I can pick and choose the product and the vendor - and I find produce that usually looks better and smells better and tastes better than what I can get from a store (and usually costs less too!) -- tomatoes that taste like they should (not like a piece of wet red cardboard); corn that's fresh from the field (not sitting on the shelf or on a truck for the past 4 days), etc, etc, etc
A farmer's market is a social event; a farmer's market supports local farmers; a farmer's market can be like a street fair - get your breakfast with your produce and entertainment at the same time! Brookfield Farmers Market http://brookfieldfarmersmarket.com/ Saturdays 7:30 to 12:00 Rain or Shine

This was very helpful. Thanks Patch!

@Tom Knox...unkept smelly Liberal?
Jim Price (Editor) August 27, 2012 at 04:13 am
AWD – or Angry White Dude, as I believe you once called yourself before you were banned from Patch and had to resurface under a new name – you really take the cake this time. Making farmers markets a political issue? Does it occur to you that farmers have been marketing their produce independently for, oh, about 10,000 years, since the dawn of agriculture? Do you know that the West Allis Farmers Market was founded in 1919, long before most modern supermarkets? Do you have any citations for mass outbreaks of bacterial infections from produce at farmers markets? Are you aware of the mass outbreaks of bacterial infections from supermarket fare, including spinach, sprouts, cantaloupe, strawberries, watermelon, eggs, hamburger, seafood and more?
Ever heard of a "farmers market food recall"? No. Because you don't know any facts. Most of us are at least as smart as raccoons and know how to wash our food. You, on the other hand, are not as smart as a raccoon.
Tom Knox August 27, 2012 at 04:20 am
LOL - - Oh, you're funny, AWD - - I can't even *remember* the last time I voted for a Democrat or Liberal; and the word you are looking for is "unkempt" not "unkept".
Smelly? Well, okay - I like garlic bread and lots of onions with my steak.

Tom
What AWD and others don't understand is that a mere 75 to 100 years ago almost all produce and meat came from within 10 to 30 miles of the farms where it was grown. Now, food is being shipped from halfway around the world: frozen, preserved and handled in ways that most of us would cringe if we observed the process. Farmers markets are not the end all. But they get the consumer closer to the producer and allow them to ask questions that the grocery store clerk can't answer. Yes, I support farmer's markets all the way. Too bad our state and fed can't get their heads out of their restrictive controlling a**es and leave it to the consumer to decide what they want. Fresh local chicken, pork, beef, etc. w/o the USDA's tax infringement should be the consumer's right. I like garlic bread and lots of onions with my steak ( and vension as well) too. Especially locally grown. Never have known a liberal farmer. Most are of the most conservative. But, what does this former farm boy know?

We can look up to see who signed a recall of their elected official because of grievances, but weRead More cannot look up who donated large wads of ca$h to the same official's campaign...Thank you GOP for turning that window of open accountability into a one-way mirror with the GOP looking out and everyone else stuck looking inward, wandering why we don't get the same vantage point. A bit hypocritical don't you think? And BTW, your GOP budget just ticked off every principal, superintendent and public school family in the state of WI today. Good luck on that second term of negative growth (-0.74).
Steve ® June 5, 2013 at 12:38 pm
Jason- See the IRS for list of donors to pro republican groups. They were illegally collected andRead More distributed. You signed the recall, no one made you do it. Deal with it already and stop changing the subject to interject some off the wall non comparison. ~in solidarity

I think Scott Walker's record speaks for itself in terms of state job growth and misplacedRead More priorities. "Blue fisters" didn't create Scott Walker, he's been a creature of ALEC since the early 1990s. Let's see if he decides to do a Bachmann in 2014. A lot of people who didn't vote in the recall election because they didn't understand/agree may not have voted for him in 2010. Anyone who has a 20-something college grad who can't find a job, male spouse, family member or friend in their 50s who can't find a job, was cut from needed health care benefits, etc., is bound to be looking for better leadership.
