Spring has Sprung here at the Grand Lake Farmers Market. Asparagus Season is in full Swing and we are now getting a number of farmers with orgainc and conventional strawberries. The market is still loaded with a great selection fall produce; citrus, sweet potatoes, kales, chards, collards, and lettuce to name a few. More of Springs bounty is yet to come, we will have Cherries the first week of May, Blueberries , raspberries and apricots will soon follow. The Grand lake Farmers Market has over a dozen different organic farms to choose from, as well as organic grass-fed beef, and eggs. So come down and shop locally at the Grand Lake Farmers Market then head down to the Grand Ave and Lakeshore avenue shopping districts for the rest of your weekly shopping needs.
