Farmers Market at Ix, Sept.5, Ix Art Park, 8:00 a.m.- 12:00 p.m.
Market hours change to 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m on October 3.
The Market Central markets are ready to go in September. The first Saturday of the month at FM@Ix means Deep Roots Milling will be there with freshly ground local and regional flour and grain. We’re glad the rains have returned to power their water wheel. A few vendors are adjusting their schedules in response to impacts of the weather. Ternion Springs lost their blueberry crop due to late freezes, and now their chickens are disappearing. We’ll fill you in when we find out more. Even this late in the season, new farms want to step into available spaces. A handful of regular vendors are out this week, but a few arts and crafts vendors including Suzu Living, are filling in, along with 3 additional bakers.
Starr Hill Market, Sept. 6, Jefferson School City Center, 9:30 a.m.-1:30 p.m.
We’d love for more vendors to try out the Starr Hill Market. We have room for several more farmers, meat producers, bakers, and various products and we have more vendors apply to FM@Ix than we can place. The Sunday market is a more relaxed alternative to the overcrowded Saturday markets. Please let us know what you’d like to see at that market so we can convince more vendors to sign up. Look for a special fall event to take place on October 25 to highlight fall at the Starr Hill Market. This week we’re introducing new baker, Milliey’s, along with a great selection of prepared , ready- to- eat foods, smoothies, pickles, flowers and farm produce by Encanto Homestead. Crafts by Monharmony will also participate.
See you at the markets! Either one or both is a great choice!
