See you at the Farmers Market opening for 2018!
It's difficult to tell when the farmers market will be at its peak this summer. It usually starts slow and then the produce (always unpredictable) starts coming in. The opening date is the same—June 11, 2018.
OTHER NEWS: "Cooking Up Traditions" with Dexter Trujillo and the students starts on June 18th and that's when visitors to the market, as well as farmers, will get to see food being cooked on the horno. The bathrooms are now functioning.
Give it two weeks and then the market will be oiled and running. Hope to see you there!
