Hello Market Shoppers!
We hope you had a happy Thanksgiving with lots of local food. The regular season is over, but we will have special holiday markets from 10am to noon, every Saturday through December 20th. This week many of our farmers are taking a well deserved break to visit family, but they will return in December. We will have special live holiday music, and food. The Market is a great way to see your neighbors and enjoy the beginning of winter, not to mention that it is the best place to buy locally produced food!
For those of you who are wondering what to buy your friends for the Holidays, we are offering Phoenixville Farmers' Market gift certificates. They are beautifully printed Market Dollars in $2 denominations. You can buy them at the market table every Saturday.
Please forward this email to friends and family that you think may be interested in signing up for our email list. Once the regular market season is over, these emails will be the best, most reliable way to find out about our Winter Markets, happening twice a month over the off season. (There is a link all the way at the bottom of the email to forward it -- thanks!)
