Maple Syrup Festival!

Lots of exciting things are happening at the Farmers' Market this Saturday! We are hosting our second annual Maple Syrup Festival and can't wait to celebrate maple syrup in lots of different ways! Our Market's very own Lynch Maple Farms will be bringing a variety of artifacts used in the farming of Maple Syrup as well as a candy floss machine and, of course, their delicious maple syrup!   FUN FACT: Did you know it takes roughly 30-40 years for a Maple tree to be big enough to tap? That requires hard-working farmers who are dedicated to their craft, like the Lynch Family! Please come to the market this Saturday from 9-1 to let them know how much you appreciate their hard work!
