Prepare for Memorial Day at the farmers’ Market

May 24, 2021 By marketeditor

By Julia Howard

This weekend, we honor the people who are no longer with us who have fought to keep our country free and safe. Food will be the centerpiece as we safely come together for family gatherings and parades or to visit cemeteries or memorials. Memorial Day invokes eating outdoors, grilling, and traditional summer recipes with a farmers’ market spin.
