Area residents who enjoy eating locally grown and produced food should mark May 5th on their calendars for the season opening of the Keller Farmers Market at 8:00 am.
Opening day will feature jazz music by The Matt Larsen Quartet, and a seed and plant exchange for gardeners looking to trade extra seeds and plants with other gardeners. The exchange is a fun and practical way to meet other gardeners, discuss gardening issues and to exchange a plant for another plant to diversify their own harvest. Tables will be set-up at the entrance to the market, staffed with volunteers who can assist.
“We are expecting local favorites as well as surprise plants at the swap. We hope this is the first of many seed and plant exchanges at the market,” says Keller Farmers Market Executive Director Bridget Rodewald.
