Who knew a Farmers' Market would be such a success? When the Student Success Centre, the Students' Union and the Lethbridge Public Interest Research Group got together to dream up a Farmers' Market and hold it in the Grove, nobody knew just how well it would be received.
It turns out the idea was a clear winner and so many people were thrilled with the results (including the vendors) that a second Market was planned for Sept. 24.
It will again take place in The Grove, from 2 to 6 p.m.
Please come out, get your groceries, check out the baubles, and support local vendors! Take advantage while the local growing season lasts.
