Here they come again: colorful farmers markets that spring up in the middle of nowhere like nomadic villages, filling parks and parking lots with local foods and goods and shoppers.
Mere hours after they appear, the carnival-like, action packed scenes dissolve into nothingness like mirages only to reappear the following week, same time, same place — rain or shine. Here’s a list of 10 on the South Shore.
