There is nothing quite like fresh produce from the summertime farmers' market. Although it is still early in the growing season, the market has plenty of local vendors with fresh baked goods, homemade preserves, organic foods and unique products. Eat locally for the tastiest produce, meat and cheese. When you buy from area farmers, more of your food dollars stay right here in your community!
This Wednesday at the Market ...
