🌱 FARMERS MARKET UPDATE 🌱

There will be NO Farmers Market today, Thursday, August 13.

With all the rain we’ve received recently, our produce vendors have limited fresh produce available, and some of our vendors are taking a break from the extreme heat this week. ☀️🌧️

We appreciate our amazing vendors and our community’s understanding! We’ll see you back at the market soon with more local goods, fresh finds and friendly faces. ❤️

Thank you for supporting our local vendors! 🧺🍅🌽
