If the prices were reasonable, I would visit more often. We need something like Findlay Market in Cincinnati or West Side Market in Cleveland that's open more than 1-2 days a week with a better selection of goods at affordable prices.

The evening news report said this project will cost $18 million. That's a lot for a farmer's market.

I feel that the Farmer's Market should have a sense of entitlement because it is the livelihood of many locals. And whose pockets does the CentrePointe project fill?

I used to shop at the farmer's market every weekend. But no more. All the whining they did about having to move and the sense of entitlement they felt regarding the Centre Point area really turned me off.
