| | Eastern Market - History |
 | | Historic Eastern Market area is not only known for its lucious, colorful farm fresh fruits and vegetables, but also for the meat products (beef, pork, lamb, poultry, geese, ducks, and rabbits), and for the herbs and spices, nuts, candies and a variety of condiments supplied by retailers and wholesalers. |
 | | Built on the site of an early hay and wood market, the Eastern Market area was one of three markets founded in the early days. |
 | | The Eastern Market means "family", as several generations have shopped together, bringing their children to see the market, its wares and the farm animals when available. |
