Update on Farmers Markets
It’s that time of year when we start to look forward to the local farmers’ markets; Magnolia Community Farmers Market (usually held on Lexington Avenue) and the Cape Ann Farmers Market (usually held at Stage Fort Park). Each organization has made changes to cope with the virus and to also allow us to access the usual array of goods.
The Magnolia Community Farmers Market has gone virtual with weekly online shopping and curbside pickups starting this Sunday May 31. Pickup times are from 10 AM to 1 PM. Online shopping Monday thru Friday at noon each week. Call 978-335-8475 or check their website at www.magnoliacommunityfarmersmarket.com I believe our friend Donna has posted about this previously so thanks for the heads-up!

The Cape Ann Farmers Market has also made changes which will include moving to the O’Maley Innovation Middle School parking lot for drive-through market Thursdays starting June 4 3 PM – 6:30 PM. More information can be found at www.capeannfarmersmarket.org Drive through and pre-order only…no walkups . Vendors are listed at the website so be sure to check there first!
