Kick-Off Farmers Market, Saturday May 5th!

Greetings All!

Although this picture of asparagus might be a little hopeful, with the wonky weather we have been having, it isn’t too far behind if we don’t see it at market Saturday! We have lots of great things in store for the 2018 market season and are so excited to share in all the bounty of spring/summer with YOU, our beloved community!

The market will be held from 8am-1pm in the municipal lot adjacent to the First United Methodist Church on Park St. There is plenty of parking both on the street and in the lot behind the Purple Rose Theater.

The musical act MIXED NUTS will be gracing our ears with a kick off show from 10:15-12:30, come listen while you shop.

Children’s Tent activity will run from 9:30-12:30 and is seed ball making: mixing media, clay and seeds together to create a little ball of blooms!

I won’t always know exactly what these amazing vendors will have and sometimes unforeseen circumstances require flexibility and understanding, but this week we expect to see:
