Flats Mentor Farm provided asian vegetables and herbs to the market, including pea tendrils, amaranth and baby bok choy. MacArthur Farms and Neighborhood Farms returned with fresh berries, herbs, kale, greens and other veggies.

Sheryl Scipione was also on hand from Glass Arts and More to show kids how to make glass-beaded necklaces.
