Happy Friday, City Greeners!
Another great harvest this week... and although we did enjoy a record setting day yesterday at the market, there's still a wonderful selection for everybody to enjoy TODAY!!!
The meat freezer is well stocked, and the fall colors are shining brightly in our selection of fresh veggies as well. So if you have time today, come on in and support our community, farmers, and market as we try to sell out of all our produce!!
Also, a note that we will be closing at 4 PM today due to St. Cronan's Church.
REMINDER: Starting in the first week of November, the market will be open from 10 until 5 every FRIDAY ALL WINTER LONG!
Thanks :)
