I frequent the Provo Farmers Market from June-October. I enjoy buying honey, eggs, pepper jellies and produce. But this year I have a new favorite: Arepas from the Miss Arepas: Venezuelan Food stand. These flavorful, meat-n-cheese filled corn-patty sandwiches are delicious. I crave them.
Miss Arepas has both chicken and beef varieties. They are then put to bed with cheese and rice, if I remember correctly. You also have the option to get a mild or spicy green (tomatillo) sauce. My take: go for the spicy, it's not too spicy and perfect...in fact get an entire side. It's that good!
And while you are eating lunch at the Provo Farmers Market this Saturday, make sure you get a nice big limeade from these two guys. It's absolutely refreshing and made with organic sugar in the raw, fresh mint and squeezed-on-the-spot limes.

Nice. I was recently in Utah and asked about any farmer's markets, but no one seemed to know about any??? I may get up that way again. Where is this market located?
I've never been to the Provo market but love the SLC market! I wish they lasted all year long!
It's nice to see the market growing. Have you been to the one at the Riverwoods? I have wanted to check that one out too.
Aimee-- The Provo market gets better every year! I have dropped by the Riverwoods one a handful of times and been bored every time. It's just so small. They have had like three okay vendors.
I think the big problem is that they do it at the same time as the Provo one. I wish they would do it on Thursday nights or something. If I were a vendor I'd opt for Provo.
With that said, I hope to see it grow. I love the Riverwoods and frequent it. They've made it such a cool place!
