Minneapolis Farmers Market
The big outdoor market, just west of downtown Minneapolis, doesn't let chilly temperatures stand in the way of commerce. During both days of November's first two weekends, the hours run 6 a.m. to 1 p.m., then drop to a shorter stretch (9 a.m.- noon) on Nov. 18 and 19. In December, the three-hour gatherings will continue on Dec. 2, 9 and 18. Looking ahead to 2018, the market will operate on the first and third Saturday of the month (9 a.m.-noon) through March, then switch it up slightly in April, convening on April 7 and 14.
