The farmer’s market portion will change as the gardening season adapts, but in the beginning there will be fresh flowers and a variety of vegetables. About half of the market is agricultural and the other half includes crafts, jewelry, baked goods, pies, breads, artist vendors and much more.
This Saturday there should be an abundance of opportunities to purchase Mother’s Day gifts or flowers for the special mom in each other’s lives.
Music will be featured each Saturday and even yoga is included. See coverage of opening day on edglentoday.com this weekend.
