BobTown #11 - RAVE: O.N.E. Farmers Market
Granted it officially became the summer of '09 early Sunday morning, but to those of us who live in the Old North End (The O.N.E.) it started at 3pm, today, Tuesday, June 23. That's when fresh produce, prepared foods, crafts, baked goods, and flowers were splayed out on tables in front of HO Wheeler school for the O.N.E. Farmers Market.
Also on hand was live music, livestock petting area, face painting and other activities for kids and information from local agencies (Opportunites Credit Union, Fletcher Allen Health Care, Very Special Arts). A lot happening on a sunny(!) afternoon.
When one talks about Farmers Markets in Burlington, everyone knows about the one in City Hall on Saturdays. If you miss that one on the weekend (where you'll spend more money on most things), this O.N.E. is open every Tuesday through the summer, 3-6:30pm.
A LOT of our pictures/posts come from Burlington and our good friend Bob, so we've decided to let him loose on his favorite city and give him his own section of our blog... we'll call it BobTown. Most of the time it won't have anything to do with drag or gay stuff or even him... just stories about... BobTown. We get a lot of hits from all over the world - probably from people who want to know more about Vermont's Queen City. Maybe they're future tourists or they're thinking about moving. You locals may learn something, too! Enjoy!!
