The Westport Farmers Market, in operation since 2006, has tied with the Black Rock Farmers Market, now in its second season, in this month's DVlicious contest, making them both winners.

A DVlicious certificate will be awarded to both later this month.

Go here for previous Daily Voice story on Westport; here for the Black Rock profile.

A special thanks to all who made this such an exciting race. Based on the numbers -- an almost even split for each -- shows an obvious passion not only for the vendors and events at each market, but for the people behind it.

Next up for DVlicious: Sports Bars, so put on your thinking caps, Fairfield County!
