Happy 250 America!
We are changing things up a bit. Part two
Has anyone noticed it’s a bit hot outside? Well, to keep our vendors from over heating, we are going to be open from 10-1 tomorrow. Close before the heat really sets in. Some of our vendors are taking the weekend off for the holiday and others are staying home due to the heat. But we’ll be there.
With some of our vendors out for the holiday, we’ve moved the majority to under the shade. Don’t see a vendor your looking for? Check with the market staff and they’ll help you out.
The Master Gardener will be at the market this weekend!
The University of Maryland Extension “Ask A Master Gardener” Plant Clinic is a free, walk-up information booth where trained Master Gardener volunteers answer home gardening questions and provide research-based advice on plants, insects, diseases, lawns, and sustainable practices throughout the growing season. Community members are invited to bring plant samples or photos for identification and diagnosis, and volunteers share recommendations and printed resources tailored to Maryland conditions, including guidance on native plants, pollinators, and Bay-friendly gardening.
