Last week's kids' activities included face painting by the ladies of the Indiana Women's Flag Football League, matching game and coloring sheets with the Greater Pittsburgh Community Food Bank, garden-themed rock painting with the Indiana Community Garden, and music by the kids, courtesy of the Indiana Free Library. Our vendors shared in the spirit of kids' day with a live bee display, scavenger hunt, and more!
This week, we are back to business as usual, but that doesn't mean it won't be exciting. You can expect even more fresh produce, new vendors, and a full line-up in our special tents!
We are happy to announce that Commonplace Coffee is joining the market! You can find them each Saturday in July serving up their own freshly-roasted coffee. Sounds delicious along with some tasty market baked goods!
In produce, snap peas are here, and there will also be loads of garlic on the way. Blueberries are coming soon, as well. Yum!
Our featured vendor this week is Hubers' 3 Ponds Farm. This is their 9th season selling delicious produce, flowers and potted plants at the Indiana County Farmers' Market. Stop by and say hello!
