Join us Saturday, October 16 from 11 to 2 at West Broad Farmers Market and Garden for our annual Fall Festival! We’ve got all sorts of fun fall, harvest, and Halloween activities for all age groups! There’s truly something for everyone to enjoy.
We will also have plenty of fresh produce and artisan goods from local farmers and vendors (with double dollars offered on fresh produce items with SNAP/EBT), live music and performances in the garden, and the maypole dedication! We have plenty of picnic tables in the garden, so come grab lunch with a view! Cloth face coverings will be required to enter the market and social distancing measures will also be in place. It’s sure to be a fun day all around, so don’t miss out!
