Market Central’s Farmers Market at Ix, April 26, Hours: 8:00-12:00.
By now you know that an unsettled forecast is no reason to stay away from the market! It’s a perfect time to pick up and plant herbs, vegetables, and garden plants, and many of our farm vendors have them. Two of our vendors, Gathered Threads and Whisper Hill, are at the Maymont Herb festival in Richmond this Saturday, but Starstead Farm, a new vendor, helps fill the gap. This is our last week with Double H until fall. You can catch them at the Nelson Market for the rest of spring and summer.
There’s a bit of chaos on the plaza this week. The Ix Art Park has rented out the plaza for another event after the market, and have put up a large tent for that event. It will impact getting around, so please look for your favorite bakers and makers over on the plaza.
In our alternating vendor circuit, this is the “on” week for Ryba’s Pierogi, Chaotic Good Tempeh, and Honeysuckle Creek Farm. Mix Eve is attending if you are interested in chia pudding and chia oat blends. Check it out!
We thank you for your attendance and support. Personally, it’s my favorite place to be on Saturday morning.
