The Garden District Farmers’ Market will open the season on Saturday, June 11th, from 1-5pm with new and returning area vendors.  Located at 6 and Howard across from the art deco Town of Lake Water Tower, the Market will be held Saturdays through October 15.
In addition to our vendors and their freshly grown produce, local musicians will be on hand most Market days from 2-4pm to entertain shoppers and vendors alike. The Market also features a weekly 50-50 raffle with special giveaways.
The Market is one of many features in Milwaukee’s designated Green Corridor.  “We’re very excited to be back and look forward to accommodating our customers and their appetites” says GDNA Chair Connie Wilson.  “Our location is a real showcase of neighborhood involvement and innovation. Our volunteers are happy to share information.”   A celebratory kick-off for the season will be held on Saturday, July 9 with special guests at 2pm.
