Well, the weather conditions for Saturday do not look so great (but thankfully, nowhere near what passed through Florida or South Carolina). We’re thinking of those who were (or will be) in Ian’s path.
Meanwhile, the Market plans to be open Saturday, but will have a VERY limited vendor set-up. So, if you can, dodge some raindrops and come show support for those vendors that are able to be there to serve you, rain or shine. AFAC will not be collecting from the market this Saturday. Westover will be operating Sunday in case you miss tomorrow’s vendors.
We will have: Twin Springs, Hog Haven, Great Valley and Kuhn’s Orchard at the market today!
Pease follow our social media, Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram, or check our website, for last-minute updates; vendor and patron safety is always paramount! For now, we plan to be at Barrett Elementary School, on Saturday, October 1, from 8:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. And don’t forget your pre-orders for Saturday pick-up! We’ll see you at the Market!!
WE HAVE SWAG!!!
