THE URBAN GARDEN MARKET: WHAT'S CHANGED AND WHAT'S THE SAME?
The opening date for this year's Urban Garden Market is Saturday, June 15, 2013
What's changed?
We have a new location; we're moving a few blocks east — to 2806 Lincoln Way West (on the southwest corner of LWW and Eclipse).
We have a new sponsor — the St. Joseph County Minority Health Coalition
What's the same?
We'll continue to be open on Saturday mornings, from 9 am until 1 pm, until October 19.
We'll continue to offer FRESH FOOD FROM LOCAL PEOPLE — Produce, Baked Goods, Jams, Honey, Plants, and much much more.
On
opening day, musician GAVIN FERLIC will join us from 10 to noon. His
performance at last year's Market was a hit with customers and vendors
alike and we welcome his return!
