A farmers’ market is more than a place to buy local produce. It’s a place to connect with the community. There is live music from 10:30-12:30 which makes it festive. Stroll through the stalls admiring and inspecting what’s on offer on the tables — eggs, locally made soaps and cheeses, baked goods, locally grown organic and heirloom vegetables, locally grown bison, a healthy alternative to beef . While you shop, you will also run into friends and neighbors, make plans, catch up, and walk away with a full shopping bag and a lifted spirit. Bring your wallet, your straw hat and your smile to Harrison Street Public Parking lot on Saturdays 8am-1pm from now until December 19th.
