Market E-Newsletter for Wednesday, August 26, 2015

We had a terrific Saturday Market! The Atchison Jazz Express were wonderfully entertaining. And the “Cash Mob” that showed up at the Market made for a very successful day. We hope all the member of that group continue to come to the Market to enjoy the fresh, local vegetables, and homemade products we have.
Come to the Market this Wednesday, August 26th from 2:30pm to 5:30pm to get mid-summer vegetables and your other mid-week needs.
Save the date for Saturday, September 5, for our “Sweetness of Fall – Apple Festival”!
