  I have to agree this is more of a flea/food market than a farmers market where you can find everything you could possibly imagine. Its obviously better in the warmed months when the outdoor area is teaming with vendors yet the inside is not to be missed. I have bought everything here from jewelry to work-bench vices, sandwiches, chocolate covered everything and a lantern or two. If you love a good flea/food/ everything market, this is it.

  This flea market has it all. There are several buildings that are climate controlled. There are several outdoor areas: one with covered vendors that are regularly in the same locations; more rows of vendors at table/stands which very often are the same week-to-week; the "junker" area that often changes. A portion is devoted to Amish specialties and is the next best thing to a drive to Lancaster. There's also a produce area and a garden area. there's lot's of parking but busy Sundays can mean a long walk. I've never been able to cover the entire flea market in a single day. The recent fire has reduced some of the interior building vendors but most were still operating.

  Columbus is much more of a flea market than a farmers' market (in fact, I wouldn't suggest getting ANY unwrapped food here, but maybe that's just me); a thousand+ vendors just selling all of the junk you can imagine. I LOVE IT.I go here regularly with my family when I'm in town, sometimes just to look at all the weird stuff you can find. One table might have videogames for systems you've never heard of (a personal favorite was the Interactive Vision, which magically ran off VHS tapes); the one next to it might have Hot Topic knock-off t-shirts, three for $10. Next-door you might find porn. Just a whole ton of porn. Over in the corner, you'll find a musician selling recordings of his pan-pipe tunes. It's incredible.And that's just the outdoors section! Inside you can find a ton of what are ostensibly stores, but they tend to sell the same weirdo junk you find outside. Both sections are open year-round; indoors is open Thursday through Sunday; outdoors is open Thursday, Saturday and Sunday.
