Greetings!
A friendly reminder that the farmers market is on break! We will move outdoors that first Saturday in May, the 5th, from 9am-1pm, in the municipal lot adjacent to the library on Park St. (same lot as last year). Our Wednesday market will start up the following week on the 9th of May in the parking lot of Chelsea State Bank on the corner of Old US 12 and M 52.
Some of you have inquired with me about the Palmer Lot project/progress. As excited as we are about utilizing the new Palmer Lot for hosting our markets, it is not scheduled for completion until late June/early July and so we have chosen to return to the lots that served us well last season!
Finally, please remember that we will kick off the outdoor market season with a fundraiser brunch at the Chelsea First United Methodist Church on Saturday April 28th from 10am-12pm. The goal of this fundraiser is to help financially support our food demonstrations and food education at the markets this season! It will be a delicious experience with food donated by our vendors and prepared by chef Bruce Reeve of Tunk’s Kitchen. To access tickets to this event you can visit Eventbrite:

As always, we value and appreciate you!
Best,
Emily
