Farmers Market & CityBlock Concerts Kick Off June 1st!
It's time to push away from your desk, take a break from the florescent lights and head over to the Farmers Market at Tower Square Park for some mid-day sunshine and entertainment! The Farmers Market across the street officially begins Friday, June 1st. From now through September, local farmers and vendors will be at Tower Square Park every Friday from 10am 3pm.
Vendors attending the market this year include Hickory Dell Farm, Stony Creek Farm, Rudy's Greenhouse, Green Acres Fruit Farm, and Something to Talk About. The market is expected to grow as the season progresses.
The highlight of the market is the series of free CityBlock Lunchtime Concerts held at the park every Friday at noon, featuring popular local bands including the 80's dance band Alibi, which is scheduled to kick off the concert season on June 1. (See June's concert schedule inside.)
There are also plans underway for special community day events at the Farmers Market throughout the four month season. Watch for more information as the season gets underway.
The Farmers Market at Tower Square Park and the CityBlock Lunchtime Concerts are a joint venture of the Springfield Business Improvement District and Tower Square.
Tower Square Park is located across the street at the corner of Main and Bridge Streets.
