点评:If you follow the impressive timeline documenting the history of Seaside that is mounted to the wall in the REP Theater Lobby, you will see that the decades-old Farmers' Market has evolved from modest beginnings. This Saturday morning highlight now hosts approximately three dozen vendors offering a variety of food items and goods. If you are a day tripper and plan to purchase perishable items, be sure to bring a chilled cooler.
The tents are neatly arranged around the centrally located Amphitheater, which places the weekly market in the middle of the Town Center.
The number of vendors seems proportional to the community it serves. Parking is located nearby, and the rates are generally lower during the market's hours of operation (9 AM-1 PM) on Saturdays. The items offered (many unique) complement the goods that are for sale daily at the merchants forming a perimeter around the Saturday farmers' market.
Though anyone traveling more than 30 minutes to Seaside might hesitate to plan a trip around the farmers' market schedule, if you are weighing options and all other factors are equal, I recommend visiting the idyllic community on a Saturday morning and making your first stop the inviting farmers' market.
A native New Englander, I can imagine a Norman Rockwell painting featuring Seaside's Farmers' Market that includes families huddling together to select the perfect items, children playing tag throughout the Amphitheater's green, and dogs out for a Saturday morning stroll (hoping to be rewarded with pet treats from under a white tent)!
翻译:如果您沿着 REP 剧院大厅墙上挂着的记录 Seaside 历史的令人印象深刻的时间表,您会发现这个拥有数十年历史的农贸市场从不起眼的起点发展而来。这个周六早上的亮点现在有大约三十多个摊位提供各种食品和商品。如果您是一日游游客并计划购买易腐烂物品,请务必携带冷藏箱。
帐篷整齐地排列在位于中心的露天剧场周围,每周的市场位于市中心的中心。
摊位数量似乎与其服务的社区成正比。停车场位于附近,周六市场营业时间(上午 9 点至下午 1 点)的费率通常较低。所提供的商品(许多都是独特的)与周六农贸市场周围商家每天出售的商品相得益彰。
虽然任何前往海边超过 30 分钟的人可能会犹豫是否要根据农贸市场时间表来计划行程,但如果您正在权衡选择,并且所有其他因素都相同,我建议您在周六早上参观这个田园诗般的社区,并将迷人的农贸市场作为您的第一站。
作为土生土长的新英格兰人,我可以想象一幅诺曼·洛克威尔的画作,画中描绘了海边的农贸市场,包括家庭挤在一起挑选完美的物品,孩子们在露天剧场的草地上玩捉迷藏,还有狗在周六早上出去散步(希望在白色帐篷下得到宠物零食作为奖励)!
