Hello, Summer!  We can't believe it's already June!  The summer weather is going to bring rapid changes to the variety of produce available each week.  If you're into pickling, canning, and freezing, the next few weeks will be a great time to stock up on peak-of-the-season produce to preserve for the summer months, when rain, heat, and insects make it difficult to grow as much variety.  There'll be plenty of options today, with fresh produce from Zenn Naturals, Fleet Farming, Blodgett's Produce Works, Winter Park Urban Farm, and Heart of Christmas.  Grab dinner from Ceylon Hut, CM's Nomad Kitchen Pizza, or the Bearded Vegan, and dine while you shop.  

We also hear Jenna is back behind the bar at Stardust tonight, so you can make your shopping trip into a Happy Hour too! 

As a weekly reminder in these pandemic times, we will continue to provide hand-washing facilities and will maintain a setup that allows for plenty of space between vendor booths.  We have masks and gloves on hand for anyone who needs them - just stop by the HQ booth and ask.  Please continue to limit to one party per booth at a time, and maintain a safe distance from your fellow shoppers.  

We hope to see you at the market. 

With Gratitude,

Gabby Lothrop 
Market Director
