"Without a doubt, the Mid-town global market is the best place to get a taste of the diversity of the Twin Cities. The culinary and cultural market hosts dozens of international food vendors, such as Moroccan, Mexican, Ethiopian, and Italian. There’s also several small shops and often live music events."

"Open outdoors every Saturday from May to October and indoors from November to April, the Mill City Farmers Market is another great market to check out in the Twin Cities area.

"The Midtown Farmers Market is a smaller market in South Minneapolis open every Saturday and Tuesday evenings. While a smaller market, the Midtown Farmers Market is big on creating a community-based market where all consumers have equal access to healthy, locally produced food. This is why in 2006, the Midtown Market was the first in the area to accept SNAP-EBT, helping more people have access to affordable foods and goods."
