Flea Market Sales on Tuesdays – until Labor Day

Webmaster — Sat, 18 Jul 2009 19:27:18 +0000

Flea Market dealers may sell at the Farmers Market on Tuesdays until Labor Day 2009. Because space is available on Tuesdays during the summer months, we are able to offer spaces to Flea Market dealers. Covered stalls are still $7.00 per day under the pavilion roof, $8.00 for covered corner stalls (if available), parking lot spots are $6.00 and grass sites are $5.00.
