What geeks do for fun: I used AI to help me code a chatbot that answers questions about today’s Farmers Market. You can ask it things like “What vendors might be there selling fresh produce?” and “What food trucks might be at the market?”

AI makes mistakes, so make sure to check the results! (Although humans make mistakes too 😅)

There’s also a searchable table of vendors.

This is an unofficial hobby app and not connected to the city!! Definitely don’t blame them if it doesn’t work!
