The series of farmers markets has a little something for everyone as it celebrates the flavors from more than 200 farm, food, and art vendors, along with holiday deals, gift ideas, and live music.
On the very last day, featured executive chef David Soloranzo of Lodge on the Desert will be whipping up creative holiday dishes.
