There's fresh, and then there's farm fresh, and that is most definitely what you will find when you shop at the Toledo Farmer's Market. This group of vendors is well worth finding, as they are located within the same area as the Erie Street Market which is indoors, but there are various vendors who set up tents in and around the area. You will find an unmatched selection of homegrown produce and herbs as well as baked goods, handmade crafts, plants and fresh cut flowers.
Imagination is something you never outgrow, and nowhere is that more obvious than at Toledo's Imagination Station. Formerly COSI, this amazing venue touts the wonders of science in a fun and highly interactive way. The kids will love the many experiments, exhibits and attractions that will draw them into and make them part of various scientific principles, but they will also enjoy some of the special features here like Mindbender Mansion and various summer camp programs. There are also special tour packages available to groups and area schools.
Both train enthusiasts as well as fans of travel and history will enjoy a visit to the Toledo and Lake Erie Western Railway and Museum. Located in Waterville, this experience is most definitely worth the extra travel time, as traveling is one of the site's main attractions. Get on board the Blue Bird for a 60-minute 15 mile ride around northwest Ohio. This is a unique train tour that will delight the entire family.
