Bounty of the Barrens Farmers' Market 2015

Now that Spring is in the air, it's a great time to talk about the 2015 Bounty of the Barrens Farmers' Market season

We are excited about the upcoming market year which officially begins Saturday, April 25 on the Glasgow Square (we still have one more winter market on April 11 at the Cooperative Extension office on West Main Street). We are also very happy to announce some new features for this year's market, including a new "guest vendor" program that will allow new or occasional vendors to bring some special "zing" to the variety of items available each week.

To that end, we are announcing the guest vendor for April 25 will be Caught Wild Salmon! 

These folks are from Lexington, but have a family connection to a wild salmon fishery on the west coast. As you can see from the graphic below, their variety of salmon bears little resemblance to what we are used to seeing in grocery stores. This is what real salmon look like and taste like! Get in your pre-order if you want to make sure you get this year's market season started off right with real food!



See you on the Square on Saturday mornings in 2015! We can't wait!
