Happenings at Broadway Farmers' Market

After a week off for Independence Day, and then a last-minute decision to cancel the market last week due to stormy weather, the Broadway Farmers' Market is finally returning to give you delicious food! - MONDAY July 18 from 4-7pm!

This week, an abundance of produce comes via Por-Bar Farms, Green Corps, Harvest in Christ, and a new small-scale farming operation: The Willow Youth Farm-to-Market!

Willow Youth Farm-to-Market 
is a small Slavic Village farm across the street from Willow Elementary. Young people employed through Youth Opportunities Unlimited, a local summer employment agency for youth, are tilling the soil and harvesting crops this summer and delivering them to the Broadway Market... by bicycle! Make sure you stop by their booth and pick up some hyper-local, ultra-sustainable produce. This week they'll have cucumbers, greens, green onions, lettuce, and mayyyybe some herbs.

Il Forno Pizza -- with that incredible wood-fired oven -- will be setting up shop early from now on, starting around noon. All you Broadway-area residents and employees: come to get your lunch at the market site on Mondays (and come back for dinner, too!).

Additionally -- Spice Hound will return to the market this week, with about a billion varieties of dried herbs and spices.

Remember to bring your knives to be sharpened by Noon Sharpening... and visit Hummingbird Creations to grab made-from-scratch soaps, shampoos, deodorants, et cetera. Transylvania Bakery has all your baked-good needs -- and take cover from the heat with a cold drink from Shipley's Coffee House.

New for this week: Publish Ohio sets up shop with a wide array of gorgeous Cleveland-area photographs, prints, and postcards. Many historic photos of Slavic Village will be on special display--these pictures make wonderful gifts for friends, family, and yourself!

See you tomorrow, from 4 to 7pm!
