Clintonville Farmers’ Market Opens 9th Season on April 30
On opening day, April 30, 40 spots will be filled with fresh spring greens and produce, eggs, pastured meats like bison, beef, chicken, pork, lamb, baked goods and artisan breads, shoots, herbs, honey, maple syrup, jams, and flowers. On this traditional first day, the "Spring Sprout" market brings garden starts of herbs, peppers, tomatillos, heirloom tomatoes, other produce, annual flowers, and native plants. Serenading first-day market patrons will be market favorite, the Baha Clintonville Broadcasters.
New this year is the market's approval to be an EBT/SNAP (USDA Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program--formerly food stamps) site. Both EBT cards and debit cards will be accepted at the market tent for $1 EBT and $5 Debit tokens.
Also new this year is the roll-out of the Clintonville Farmers' Market Friends of the Market and the Clintonville Farmers' Market Kids Garden Club programs. Both programs offer the community ways to participate directly in the market's mission.
The non-profit, three-season Clintonville Farmers' Market runs each Saturday morning, 9:00 a.m. - 12 noon, April 30 through October 29 (Harvest Market November 19) on N. High St. between Orchard Land and W. Dunedin Road. Customer parking is available at Cephas Capital and Columbus Mennonite Church at Oakland Park and N. High Street. Cycling and walking to market are encouraged!
