Though farmer’s markets have started to make a comeback over the past 10 to 20 years, they are nearly as old as society. The first market was over 5,000 years ago in Egypt. Farmers who grew fresh produce along the Nile would bring their good to town to be sold. The American farmer’s market dates back to the Jamestown Settlement and modern farmer’s markets began in the 1800s in Philadelphia. Today, one of the most popular farmer’s markets lives out on the West Coast in Seattle, Washington; the Pike Place Market sells fruit, vegetables, flowers and of course—fresh fish. The Redmond Farmers Markets in Redmond, Washington and Redmond, Oregon are close contenders for fan favorites.
Though many of these markets in the United States have become very popular, markets in Japan are also contenders. A market in Tokyo has over 1,700 stalls and holds the title for the largest in the world.
Farmer’s markets generally sell good, brought into cities by local vendors. Visitors can purchase baked goods, meats, vegetables, fruits, flowers and homemade items like soap, jewelry and candles. The benefit these markets offer over traditional grocery stores is that the producers get to sell their goods directly to the public. These markets also engage a sense of community within a city. Farmer’s markets have become places for friends and strangers to meet as well as a place for the public to understand where their food comes from.
Lancaster, Pennsylvania is the home of the country’s oldest continually operating farmer’s market. Housed in a 120-year old brick building, the market has become a centerpiece of the town. Since it opened over 275 years ago, the Central Market has brought members of the community and visitors together for a cup of coffee, a pastry or just for a beautiful stroll amongst historic buildings. Since Lancaster was built to become a market town, it’s no wonder such a beautiful market still stands. The town speculates the most stalls in the market once topped 400.
The public market is now home to 63 small businesses. There’s even a waitlist for business owners who want to rent a stall. Local vendors include a hydroponics produce company, a tulip farm, over 10 local growers of produce, a horseradish manufacturer and a flower nursery. The market also sells plenty of fresh baked goods, fresh seafood, herbs, pretzels, fudge and tea. For guests who can’t wait to get home and try some of Lancaster’s freshest food, there are also several food vendors who sell cuisines like German, Thai and Middle Eastern foods. Five vendors also sell crafts and homemade items including hand-poured soy candles and quilts.
Since the market is a historical one, the friends of the market are continually making improvements on the space, the building and the booths. Almost 15,000 people come to the farmer’s market each week in Lancaster, and the market wants people to keep coming back, week after week.

[DRONE FOOTAGE] Flooding in Ephrata, Pennsylvania - August 4, 2018
I was camping near the Cocalico Creek in Ephrata, PA, when I was awakened by a person bellowing for help. A white Lincoln had been flooded out trying to make it over the flooded road. The driver was ok, but pretty upset about his car. Some relatives and I towed the car out and got it running again so the driver could get to work.
Then, after shooting this footage, I got a call that a Mustang had circumvented the road closed signs and the driver had drowned out the engine leaving the 4 passengers stranded near the bridge. We hooked up a tow line to an F-150 and pulled it out. Unfortunately, we were unable to get the Mustang running.

Garden Spot Road can be seen flooded near the Green Dragon Farmer's Market. Wabash road was severely flooded.

A Trip to the Railroad Museum of PA Part 2
More from the Railroad Museum of Pennsylvania. I really regret not visiting more often, the last time I went was before they expanded.
Tip: If you plan on visiting both the RR Museum and the Strasburg Train Station go to the museum when it first opens, after you're done it'll be close to lunch time. Take a picnic lunch or buy a box lunch from the Sweet & Treat Shop and ride the train to the picnic grounds and enjoy. Just make sure you don't miss the last train of the day.
