The perfect place to synchronize with Mayne's offbeat rhythms, this rustic market in and around the Agricultural Hall serves up lush homegrown produce, a crusty baked treat or three and some locally made arts and crafts. With live music and a retro hippy-dippy vibe, on summer Saturdays it'll seem like every islander is right here.
