The Thornton Farmers Market will reopen on Saturday, May 14, with lots of new offerings to celebrate its 10-year anniversary.
Donna Wetterlund, the open-air market’s manager, said she is excited about the upcoming season.
“We will be featuring something fun each week, like free dog photo portraits, hula-hoopers, yoga on the field, baton-twirlers, farm animals, chair massages, visits from SPCA adoptable animals, wool spinning and weaving demos with angora goats, jugglers and live music,” she said.
The market, located on a field at 341 Glen Mills Road in Thornton, offers fresh and local produce and products such as honey, eggs, fresh cut flowers, BBQ lunches, breads, dog treats, plants, preserves, pies, handcrafted soaps, woodcrafts and much more. Live alpacas are on hand to pet, and a shady pavilion provides a lovely spot to enjoy the market while eating lunch, Wetterlund said.
In addition, the market will feature give-away days with free promotional merchandise and shopping discounts. “Every Saturday will be extra special this year,” said Wetterlund.
The market will run from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. each Saturday through October with the exception of the holiday weekends: May 28, June 4, July 2, and Sept 3. For more information, visit https://www.facebook.com/thorntonfarmersmarket/.
