| Saturday Farmer's Market at Marco Polo Plaza Hotel Cebu |
Remember those 1990s movies like Sleepless in Seattle, Notting Hill, You've Got Mail, and Simply Irresistible, or other romantic films that feature community markets? Those scenes make the movies much more interesting and realistic in many ways.
I’ve always loved going to weekend markets because of the sense of community one feels while there. There’s no rush—you take your time choosing your vegetables, fruits, and ready-to-eat meals. There is no pressure, whether you’re there for a quick bite, buying a handful of onions or garlic, or just wanting to drink some fresh coconut juice. And you can definitely say that it's a quintessential Cebu food place because of the abundance of mangoes and lechon.

| Support Local, Support Fresh: Direct from farmers' farms in Cebu. |
While going around, you might also spot familiar faces and friends, just as I did when I dropped by the Saturday Farmer's Market at the Marco Polo Plaza Hotel Cebu. It really got me thinking that events like this keep people connected and continue that neighborly vibe.
This Saturday Market—which features budding entrepreneurs, home cooks proudly showing off their specialties, and true-blue farmers selling various produce directly from their farms—is both an avenue and a venue for Cebuanos to support their local communities.
The Farmer's Market at Marco Polo Plaza Cebu is open every Saturday from 7:00 AM to 2:00 PM. And as proof of the need for this type of social network, it is now celebrating its 5th anniversary.
