The Radian's Best Idea Since Waffle Breakfast?

farmersmarket_online_rev

Summer's here, kids, which for us Philadelphians means achieving that balance of complaining about the humidity while still finding any excuse to go outside. Usually the best way to lure us out of the AC is something involving food, be it backyard BBQs, water ice, or that creepy irritating charming little tune of the ice cream truck that will remain in our head for days afterward.

But another fun way to get food and be outside at the same time is through the classic setup of the farmers' market! You may be familiar with some of the current ones, like the weekly Clark Park market (Clarket? Parket? Clark Park Mark?), but now everybody's favorite summer sublet hotspot is jumping on the ol' hay wagon and taking it for a spin around what is apparently called the "Radian plaza."

According to the DP, there's even going to be live music at these weekly events, from performers such as the West Philadelphia Orchestra and Unidos da Filadelfia, so feel free to brush up on your samba skills before stopping by to peruse all the yummy treats from local vendors.  The farmers' market starts on June 4 and will continue every Friday through July from noon until 2pm, so be sure to stop by and let us know what you think!
