| Greetings! |
Hooray ~ they're all here! 
We've had a number of our growers here for weeks now, with more coming in every week ~ but today we got the call from our last one who has yet to appear. So now the gang's all here, and that's something to celebrate!
Come down to the Market this weekend for some wonderful vegetables and homegrown fruits such as raspberries and strawberries. Many of our growers do not use chemicals and this year we have a new Sunday-only vendor we'll highlight below that is certified organic. Summer, here we come!
Add us to your weekend plans. We're open Saturday and Sunday, 6:30am to 1:30 pm.
It's FUN! It's Local! It's what we're all about.
 Like us on Facebook and stay tuned for the details of our upcoming events.

Music at the Market with Steve Sullivan and the Factory
| |
Their latest studio releases - two full-length CDs titled I Did a Bad Thing and Love Is a Hit Parade - both hit the street on December 23, 2011.
Steve Sullivan was born in New Mexico in a wasteland railroad town on the dried up banks of the Rio Grande River. With the ghost of Billy The Kid hanging in the desert air, Sullivan started playing guitar, writing songs and recording at age twelve. To this day he has released five solo albums (available on iTunes). In 2010 he released the Steve Sullivan and the Factory debut, Last Night.

| Vendor Spotlight |  Dawn to Dusk Gardens
Their motto is from sunrise to sunset - in dirt - we do it better! They find it exciting to be organic farmers, because it requires them to think about the land they use and share with all stakeholders, from the microscopic living things we cant see in the soil to the customers at the farmers market who are ready to reward their toil. Sundays only, near the kettle corn operation ~ look for their banner!
 Kinchie's Crepes brings you an easy way to be a hero to your family. Who wouldn't be impressed with authentic French crepes, smothered in delicious raspberries or strawberries from the Market? Well, after over 18 months of testing recipes, researching different ingredients and indulging in hundreds of crepes Andrew believes he has developed the most French authentic crepe mix available to consumers. Easy, too! I promise. Cuz I don't cook and even I could make them turn out great!
 Hot enough for you?!? How many times have you heard that this past week?Well, we say if life hands you heat, make a slushy and enjoy the refreshing cool goodness you can get only from the authentic Shake n Slush maker.
Put in the 3 reusable ice pouches, add your favorite healthy juice or not quite so healthy flavored drink (anything!) ~ and shake for 2 minutes. Ta daa! You'll have a frozen slushy drink to help you beat the heat.
You'll find Joseph with these amazing cups near the loading dock where the band is playing. You'll see the crowd. Yep, that's him.
