Another Successful Organic Market
Thanks to all of the shoppers and vendors who helped make our 2nd annual Organic Market such a success! We estimate over 2000 people visited the market to take home some of the great offerings from our local farmers. We have received many followup requests for contact information on our great vendors, so we added a link below with our complete vendor listing. We look forward to seeing everyone next year.
