• Eating locally grown produce is better for you and the environment. Logan has a Farmer's Market on Saturdays from 9:00-1:00 behind Merlin Olsen Park, and a produce market on Wednesdays at 7:00 in front of the Logan Courthouse. Both are excellent ways to find quality produce from local growers. Not only is the produce local, but it's usually extremely fresh an delicious!
