The Ice Rink is Returning Soon!

Blog

November 25, 2021

Happy Thursday! We've just begun prepping for our ice rink and that means you'll find the Farmers' Market in a slightly different place this Saturday - still outdoors and on the square, but on the upper level by the large glass windows. That's where you'll find us for the next four weeks! We have a couple of notable things happening this week: Dave from Dave's Beef & Lamb is back, The Community Woodshop is also back with wood holiday items, Dee is back with her baked goods, and Mulberry Moon Farm is joining us! They are a small-scale, ecological family farm that you may recognize from other local farmers' markets. We're exited to have them with us this week. Joyce Farms is taking a one week hiatus so in addition to Mulberry Moon Farm, you'll find Janssens and Greystead! Lots of produce to go around. Also note that this is Da Costa's last week at Market this year, so make sure to enjoy and say hello!
