Inside Centenary Farmers Market

You will see people selling different farm produce and also some imported vegetables and fruits. There is a different section for vegetables, Fruits, Cereals, Fish, Flowers etc. And there are also small restaurants within the market.

Since shopkeepers have a difficult time with the kids, this market has even a daycare within, so they can just drop their kids at the day care.
