Grand Opening This Saturday!

This weekend will be the 2012 Season Grand Opening for the Sanford Farmers' Market!  The weather looks beautiful for tomorrow, and we have lots of special guests and events planned.

From you local farmers at this weekend's farmers' market:

McDougal Orchards will be bringing cider donuts, rhubarb and a few lucky early customers will be able to snag the first cucumbers of the season!  Woolever Farm will have lamb, pork, yarn, fleece and a pelt.  Russel Springs Farm will be bringing fresh lettuces, endive, Swiss chard and bok choi.  Stonefield Farm will have jams, jellies, aprons, perennials, watercolors, raspberry brownies, scones and whoopie pies.  Flying Goat Farm will have goats' milk cheeses and goats' milk yogurt, and a few cuts of chevon.

In addition to the local fare from the farmers, this weekend we will be having live music, a raffle, and a special tent with kids' activities including farm story readings, coloring contest, and sidewalk chalk coloring.  Boomer from the Sanford Mainers will be making an appearance, and Flying Goat Farm and Woolever Farm will be bringing some baby farm animals for a market visit.

We look forward to seeing you tomorrow!
