The first Land Park Farmers Market began this Sunday, July 31st. The event was located off Sutterville Road near the WLP golf course, and shaded by the parks’ mature tree canopy. It was a small but mighty showing with a few farmers and one “maker” booth. Neighbors appeared happy and eager to purchase local organic fruits/veggies and chat with others.
Moving forward, the Land Park Farmers Market is scheduled for Sunday mornings until the end of December from 8am – 1pm. The organizer is Rafeal Medrano, owner of Ecofriendly Greens and a Land Park resident. Rafael is excited about the upcoming possibilities. More vendors plan to join so the market will grow to include baked goods and other specialty items that are locally grown and/or made.
