The Original Farmers Market will be held on Tuesday, July 14 between 5:00 p.m. and 9:00 pm. Themed ‘Best Bites,’ the Market’s special seventh annual strolling tasting tour will feature samples of some of the best offerings from Farmers Market grocers, chefs, restaurants and specialty food merchants.
‘The Taste of Farmers Market is one of our most-highly anticipated events each year,’ said Ilysha Buss, Farmers Market Marketing Director. ‘It allows our merchants to showcase some of their favorite, and many times most popular, offerings to a new audience of food lovers. We’re thrilled to be able to present this great event again this year, with a special ‘˜Best Bites’ theme.’
The inaugural Taste of Farmers Market occurred for the Market’s 75th Anniversary and has since become one of the Market’s signature celebrations.
