Back in Action for 2021 Hello there Moscow Farmers Market fans!
What a whirlwind of a year it has been. I want to thank all patrons and visitors for sticking by the Market through it all. Our office is looking forward to the coming months in the 2021 Market season.
In particular, staff is excited to have live entertainment return! Catch scheduled performers in Friendship Square from 9:00 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. every Saturday beginning in July. Or enjoy the many individuals that participate in our Performance Vendor/Busker program at one of the three main entrances to the Market.
In addition to welcoming back musicians, our office has welcomed two new members to the Free Range Vegetable Crew. Find Corey and Kelsey in Friendship Square or at the City of Moscow Information Tent every Saturday for information about our Market.
Here's to a successful 45th season of the Moscow Farmers Market!
