Farmers Market Still Having Success at the HUB

Mark Ross

The Hope Farmer’s Market is still going strong at the HUB! This week, the hospitality table was hosted by the National Park Service, where shoppers could stop and enjoy a hot cup of coffee and sign up for a chance to win the weekly giveaway – a basket full of local produce and handmade items. Terrie James, with U of A Extension offered samples of “Paw Paw Jam” and biscuits for Taste This! Tuesday.

Only 1 more Tuesday remains of the regular season Hope Farmers’ Market and after a short break, the fall Market will begin on September 26. Fall Markets will be on Thursday’s from 4-7 pm, until produce is no longer available.
