Autumn is Coming!

Atchison  Farmers’ Market

Fresh, Friendly, Local

Market E-Newsletter, Wednesday, September 13, 2017

2:30 – 5:30 p.m.

With autumn beginning only a week and a half from now, we are already enjoying cool nights and warm days.  Our vendors are continuing to harvest bushels of vegetables and fruits.  Come to the Market this Wednesday (2:30 – 5:30 p.m.) to buy locally grown produce.

The Market Manager, Debbie Genova, (green and white striped tent) can swipe your credit, debit or SNAP cards. We participate in the Double Up Food Program and the Kansas Senior Farmers Market Nutrition Program. Buy your Farmers Market gift cards ($10) from Debbie and we accept Chamber of Commerce gift certificates. You can register for the October Bundle Give Away at her booth also.

You can support your Farmers’ Market by buying a Plant a Carrot sign to put in your yard and/or “I love my Farmers Market” bumper sticker.
