RIVER VALE—The River Vale Farmers Market is in full swing, with perfect weather expected this week making it a great time to grab lunch or dinner from local vendors, enjoy live music, and shop for fresh produce, meats, and artisanal products. Shoppers can expect a vibrant array of seasonal goods, with bistro seating available to relax and enjoy the community atmosphere.
Local vendors will be offering everything from fresh veggies and fruits to meats, honey, eggs, pickles, breads, and more. And while supplies last, free River Vale bags will be available to market visitors.
Families are encouraged to send their Holdrum Middle School students to pick up a snack after school, and those needing a tune-up on their kitchen tools can take advantage of Phenix’s knife and scissor sharpening services.
The market runs on Thursdays in the lot next to Town Hall, at 406 Rivervale Road.
