June 13th: Provo Farmer’s Market

One of my favorite events happens every Saturday from 9am to 2pm: the Provo Farmer’s Market! Way more than just produce, the farmer’s market offers handicrafts, local dairy, and a myriad of lunch choices for your gang. My vote will always be for the kalbi taco (you heard that right—Korean-Mexican food!)

Ongoing: Hogle Zoo’s Madagascar

I’ve been hearing good things about the new Madagascar exhibit at the Hogle Zoo. Call me crazy, but I think these overcast and mild days are perfect for hitting the zoo with your brood.
