REPORT FROM LAST WEEK’S MARKET: It was another lovely day at the Market. We had 39 vendors. We registered 4 vendors. We had visitors from New York, Florida and New Mexico. We also welcomed a new volunteer. It was Game Day at the Market. Children stopped by to play board games and use the hula hoops. Those who participated received coupons to spend at the Market. The Jam Tent was overflowing with musicians! The Recycling Co-op set up a table to inform visitors about the new recycling center located in Paoli.

We are fortunate to have friendly, helpful MASTER GARDENERS at every market. Bring your gardening questions to the MASTER GARDENER TABLE and they will be very happy to help you! Our master gardeners will have for reference a water garden book at their table for those wishing guidance with their water gardens.
