Here is what’s at the Loveland Farmers’ Market this Tuesday

Tuesday, July 19

3:00 – 7:00 pm

205 Broadway Street
Between the canoe livery and the bike trail
*******************************************

Join us tomorrow won’t you? You’ll find all the veggies and fruits you expect at this time of the year. And, the best part, most were picked in the morning before the market. Talk about fresh!!! When were the fruits and vegetables picked that are on the shelves at our local super market? You know what else??? You can talk to the producer of the items you buy at the market. Can you do that at the super market?? I think not!!  Another great reason to shop weekly at the Loveland Farmers’ Market.

Looking ahead – next week, July 26, the market features the fifth annual Kids’ Taste a Thon.  Kids will begin the journey by first visiting the Kids’ Patch booth to pick up a card which lists the participating vendors and what they are offering for tasting/trying. A sticker will be given for each item tried. Try 15 items, receive a market buck!

See you tomorrow at the market!
