Farmers Market Moves Again by Kelsey Snelgrove
T
he Chase Farm & Craft Market is starting up this Friday, May 19th in a different location, near the Garden Centre in the Safety Mart Plaza. The hours will remain the same as last season, from 10 am- 2 pm every Friday until September. Vendors are hoping this location will draw more traffic and help the market grow. Vender turned organizer Joe Lapinsky, of Forest Garden Soap and Sundry thought the move would help make the market worthwhile for vendors, which in turns brings in more customers. “We want it to grow into a hub, that can actually support farmers,” explained Lapinsky.
