Notes from the Market Manager A weekly rundown of your farmers market
We had a great turn out for the Fitness Fest last week! Our customers enjoyed yoga classes, chair massages and tons of delicious and nutritious foods! We loved to see our customers sitting and enjoying the market and talking to vendors and enjoying a few minutes of our great community.
This week, we have 11 vendors coming to the market. And the Medford Farmers Market’s reusable water bottles have been a hit! These bottles are made from TritanTM, acopolyester plastic that does not contain Bisphenol A (BPA). The bottles are impact, shatter, and leak resistant, with non-skid rubber bottoms. These durable 22 oz bottles are also FDA approved, and can carry both hot and cold liquids (up to their boiling and freezing points). Stop by the manager’s table and buy one for $7 while supplies last!
See you at the market!
