1. Williamsburg Farmers' Market

The Buzz -- Held in Merchant's Square, this farmer's market helps continue Williamsburg's traditional role of being a gathering place for the community as well as a center of regional trade and commerce. Indeed, as you walk past this collection of white tents and stands, you'll see (and smell) cut flowers, organic produce, beeswax candles, coffee beans, fresh seafood and even homemade pies. In addition to the merchants, the market also books live music and, from time to time, local chefs who share secrets of the trade.
