Central Park is a green space used for events, community gatherings, shows, and a great farmer's market. When the park is not being used, its a good place for a quick walk or short cut to the rest of the downtown area. There are areas that provide shade from the sun, but the main part of the park is the field, where the farmers gather. The park is well maintained. There isn't much to do, but keep an eye out for events, seems to be the main function of the park.
MoreNice park that’s a few acres in space. Stuff for all ages and nicely kept. Believe they do live music in summer.
MoreYes this a farmers market with great foods and vegetables from fantastic local growers but that's just the beginning, This is a must see Saturday Community, Art, Food Truck experience. Great outing for everyone... shuts down promptly at 12 noon.
MoreWe enjoyed the park, it was a nice walk and break from walking the concrete jungle. Wasn’t any activities going on while we were in town, but I can see it being quite the place for events.
MoreThe Farmer's Market is terrific but the park itself is so easy access, comfortable, a great place for community events and just a perfect small size.
