Damascus Fresh & Local Market

 
 




Opening Day is HERE!

Thursday, May 23, 2013

Hours: 3:00 - 7:00 PM



The stage is set for Opening Day of the Damascus Fresh & Local Market.  The site itself speaks to the exciting changes to the Market in its second year.  The brush around the trees have been removed and loads of wood chips have been laid down to provide shade and a comfortable venue for our visitors to eat, listen to music and visit with others.




And you can’t miss the entrance to the market, directly off of Foster Road across from Safeway, thanks to the re-purposed “cat-track” that now serves as our sign holder as well as a planter. So, turn in at the planter for fresh produce, prepared meals, cut flowers, and a variety of sweet treats.  See “2013 Vendors” for a partial list of vendors at the market. At this point, cold crops (kale, spinach, swiss chard, etc.) should be in abundance.



On tap for entertainment on our new stage will be The 153rd Avenue Rhythm and Blues Review, a three piece band featuring Brian Ward, Matthew Dodak, and Gary Glover.


Come join us celebrate the opening day of you local Farmers’ Market.  See you there this Thursday. And bring sunshine with you.  We have covered areas, though, in case the weather doesn’t cooperate!
