Happenings at Tremont Farmers' Market Today

Happy Thanksgiving, however you choose to celebrate.  Usually that involves food of some sort or another......speaking of which, we'll have lots of it at market!  Stock up for your feast this week.  See just how "local" you can be. Winter Market Location: Holy Ghost Greek (Byzantine) Catholic Church and Cultural Center 2420 W.14 St, on the corner of Kenilworth Ave.  Parking available at the Church, across the street at OLA St. Joseph and on Kenilworth Ave. Apparently, November 22nd is Start Your Own Country Day. It was originally conceived in 1939 at the World's Fair in New York. Its conception was to honor those free spirited souls who dared to hope and believe in a better world where they too could declare any land their own.  Hmmm....... Music: Wesley Washington will be busking at market! For those of you unfamiliar with the term, a musician plays, you donate directly to them, usually there is a case placed out for donations.  Wes played for us this summer, and I am really glad he's coming back!
