Things To Do
Saturday Morning Farmers Market
The Downtown farmers market at Pioneer Park brings in thousands of people every Saturday to shop for local food and art. It's a great place to shop, people watch, or grab lunch. While you're there, stop in Tony Caputo's Market, a pillar of the SLC food scene.
