New Edgewood Outdoor Market Opens Next Month
by Kelly Krauth
When I was younger, one of my favorite Saturday morning events was a trip to the farmer’s market. Wandering through the booths, picking and choosing my “prizes” for the week was something that I looked forward to. As we look towards doing our part in the fight for a “green” community, the revitalization of the local market seems a wise choice.
On June 13th, the Edgewood “Arts and Organics Market” will open on the corner of Rt 66 and 344. As the name implies we will offer a variety of organic fruits, vegetables, nuts, honey, and eggs as well as the crafts and products of local artisans. We are seeking all facets of vendors as we wish to offer enough variety to have something for everyone. Growers, Artists, Canners, Bakers, Crafters, musicians and anyone else that has a marketable product that is produced locally is welcome to join us!
The market will be open every Saturday from 9:00 – 1:00 through September. For more vending or other information, call Shari at 235-8285.
