Opening Day - Saturday, November 5th

Opening Day is finally here! We will begin our 7th annual winter farmers market this Saturday, November 5th from 10:00 - 2:00. We are pleased to have Chef Chris Avtges returning for a free cooking demo at 11:00. Chris was a contestant on the Food Network Show "Chopped" and has dramatically changed his lifestyle with healthy cooking. His cooking demo at Chelmsford Agway will be filmed for the show "Cooking In The Merrimack Valley". We have a great line-up of vendors for our first market of the season. There are returning favorites as well as several new additions to the market. If you are interested in learning more about the vendors, there are links to each of the vendors on the right side of this blogsite. Our non-profit this week is the Chelmsford Boy Scouts Pack 81. They will be selling popcorn to support scouting activities for the pack. We will also have Brian Henderson at the market to entertain us with his fabulous voice!
