Hello Market Shoppers!

The rain will be GONE by our market tomorrow morning and we are expecting a lovely day with some VERY SPECIAL activities!

Of course our market food is healthful and delicious, but on the Third Saturday of each month we pay particular attention to this fact with special activities.  This month they are:

9AM An onstage cooking demo by local cooking school Cooking Spotlight.  Jenny will whip up an easy and delicious Polenta with wild mushroom ragout and shaved asparagus salad

Free blood pressure screenings and information from Phoenixville Hospital

A plant sale by Charlestown Play House- Gardening is great exercise!

Even though she is new to us this season, this week, Molly Johnston, of Nomadic Pies, celebrates her 2-year anniversary.  Be sure to stop by her farm-to-table food truck to grab a pie.  Our other food trucks, Sunflower and HEART will be away this week, but both will return on May 24th and be with us for the rest of the season!
