Come one, come all – dust off those market baskets that have been in hiding all winter waiting to sling on your arm and get filled with fresh produce and other offerings. Join us in the opening of the Dixon Farmers Market on Wednesday, June 11th from 9:30am-1:30 pm at St. Anthony's Parish parking lot (downtown Dixon kitty corner from Coop) 1114 Private Dr. #5 in Dixon. See what our local farmers have been planting and getting ready to share with you as you take their precious crops home to transform them into something scrumptious in your kitchens. The Farmers Market will be every Wednesday at this time and location throughout the season! See you there.
