The Tiffin Seneca Farmers Market has moved to a weekly event. That means fresh produce and baked goods will be available weekly. A weekly farmers market benefits consumers by giving them the opportunity to purchase fresh produce weekly, but it also helps the local economy.
During the month of June while shopping at the farmers market consumers will be able to find zucchini, bok choy, asparagus, strawberries, napa cabbage, cilantro, sweet cherries, scallions, kale, kohlrabi lettuce, parsley, spinach, sugar snap peas, radish, rhubarb, summer squash, and swiss chard.
Kids activities will include face painting by Calvert Catholic School and market bingo!
This week's market will also feature market bingo and music by Tyler Chaffee. He plays acoustic type music and will be performing from 10:00-12:00 on Washington Street. Preview his music on YouTube or visit his instagram at tylera.chaffee.
