Corvallis, Oregon has a farmer's market that has grown from a few vendors when it began years ago to probably fifty plus vendors today. Now it is a thriving community of vendors, families, street musicians and more. It still remains true to its initial intent of offering fresh garden produce and quality crafts. Located along the Willamette River, it provides a natural scenic avenue filled with trees and other plants plus benches and picnic tables placed along the market way.
I took some photos that illustrate the energy that one would would run into as they walked along the market-way -- see below.

A Corvallis mother and two sons delighted me with
some smiles and some nice conversation.
Dogs were everywhere at the market -- with their owners -- strutting their stuff and being friendly with anyone who gave them an occasional pat on the head.
