Every first Sunday of the month from 9am-5pm, the Ventana al Mar in Condado is converted into an urban market. Over 40 vendors (farmers and artisans) from all over the Island set up their stalls to showcase their locally produced goods. The urban market began with three goals: to give farmers the opportunity to present their crafts and products directly to the consumer, to create a partnership between the farmers and restaurants in the area and to create awareness of locally grown and organic goods among the local consumers. At the produce market, visitors can shop around and purchase fruit, vegetables, cheeses, honey, coffee, freshly-squeezed orange juice, medicinal plants, organic yoghurt and natural ice cream, amongst other things. It is a wonderful way to spend the day, browsing the local Puerto Rican products, all whilst overlooking the ocean.
