0Summer Markets Supply Local Bounty
It’s the time of year that we welcome the return of our favorite farmers and artisans after the long winter to area farmers’ markets supplying a wide variety of locally grown produce and items such as flowers, pickles, baked goods, candles, soap, olive oil, dog biscuits and Mediterranean food. Plus, we get to meet the folks that make our food and trade tips and tricks about how and why things are done. WIC and Senior FMNP vouchers are accepted by some farmers.
