Aug. 19th, The weather smiled on the market again and with two added vendors and additional new patrons a vibrant atmosphere continues to develop. Hours are 4-7pm every Wednesday- rain or shine. Remember that most of the vendors from the Wednesday market are now joining the Monday Grove Street Market, and it thus is becoming the downtown farmers market in its own right. It is also worth noting that Snap/EBT has returned to the market. Many thanks to Cypress and Grove for their generous support of both markets during these uncertain times. Please come out and support both markets and the brewery to help demonstrate that people desire the right to attend clean open air markets wearing their masks while maintaining safe social distancing.
