When the ice of winter thaws and flowers start to bloom, Madisonians know the best season is just around the corner — farmers' market season.

While most folks are well aware of the Dane County Farmers' Market held on the Capitol Square, there are plenty of markets for those who prefer to stay out of downtown.

Here's a map of some of Madison's many spring and summer markets. Please note this is not an exhaustive list, if you have a market to add, send us an email at contact@madisonminutes.com.
