The Downtown Farmers Market is set for 3-7 p.m. every other Wednesday, starting June 14. The market is at the the bus depot in front of the MidPointe Library Middletown, between the two buildings.
Shoppers will find a variety of fresh produce, baked goods, meat, dairy, jams and jellies, flowers and handcrafted items from 15 vendors. Little Trolley Donuts will be on site for the first event.
There will also be live music.
“We don’t have a lot of grocery stores in downtown, so this provides an opportunity for fresh produce to be available to anyone who wants to come, but especially to those in this area,” Lewis said.
She said for the past decade, residents have wanted a farmers market in the city, and this seemed like the right time to bring the market downtown.
“It’s a community event, and we encourage community members to come out for something positive. We encourage them to have an active role in the positive things going on in our city, and that means coming to the events, and supporting local,” Lewis said.
