I hope you can join us this Saturday at 8 a.m. on the west side of the Courthouse square in Clay Center. I know many of the vendors are just chomping at the bit for the market to start.

• Radishes
• Green Onions
  
• Rhubarb
• Spinach
• Asparagus
• Tomato, pepper, squash, and cucumber seedlings
• Hanging baskets of tomatoes
• Jellies and jams
• Baked goods
• Buffalo meat

...and much more! We look forward to seeing you on Saturday.

CC Farmers Market 2010

It's just a matter of weeks until the Clay Center Farmers Markets begin for the 2010 season. Our Saturday market will start up Saturday, May 8, and run every Saturday until October 31. The Saturday market takes place from 8-11 a.m. on the west side of the Courthouse Square.

We had so many customers request an evening market that we decide to give it a try this year. Starting in June, we will be hosting a Wednesday Farmers Market on the nights the Clay Center City Band plays. The Wednesday Market will be from 5-7 p.m. on the east side of Dexter Park, along 7th Street.

Both markets will provide the same great quality and selection of local produce and products, and now hopefully will include a time and location that is most convenient for you.

We are looking forward to the start of the Markets and seeing everyone again. It truly has become a community event. We hope you'll join us on May 8!

Week four and we still have MORE!

Week Four and we still have more!

It is hard to believe, but the market has been open for four weeks now. It looks like we will have great weather again this week. I hope everyone can make it out to see what we have to offer on Saturday from 8-11. With the warmer weather comes more produce. It will only be a matter of time before we have homegrown tomatoes, cucumbers, sweet corn, melons, potatoes, squash and many more choices.

For the meanwhile, try something new. Ever try a squash blossom? Let me tell you, YUMMY!

Items we will have available, lettuce, spinach, radishes, broccoli, Zucchini, Hanging Tomato Baskets, Green onions, Rhubarb, Flowers, Jams and Jellies, Squash Blossoms, New Potatoes, and much more.

Hope to see you all on Saturday!

Farmers Market Starts on Saturday!

If you have seen the bright green posters around town and came to this website, WELCOME! We are happy that you came to check us out. Tell us where you saw our poster.

It looks like it is going to be a beautiful day for our first Farmers Market. I hope you are excited about local food as we are about growing it.

Help us make this year successful. If you don't see an item that you would like, ask a vendor if they are growing it or will they grow it. If you are a hobby gardener, please come and check out the plants that people will have for sale.

Hope to see you on Saturday!
