Overland Farmers Market says "Buy Fresh and Buy Local" on Saturday June 25

Overland, Missouri…The Overland Farmers Market will offer an array of fresh, locally produced vegetables on Saturday, June 25 at the Market pavilion located at 2512 Woodson Road in Overland about one mile north of Page Avenue.

Vendors at the Market typically offer an array of green things clipped fresh from the garden: Basil, chives, cilantro, sorrell, tiny turnip tops, beet tops, dill weed, clipped spinach, lettuce and fresh pulled green onions. Don’t forget fresh fruits and vegetables: strawberries, rhubarb, snow peas, sugar snap peas, asparagus, sweet corn, yellow and green squash and sweet onions. Plus freshly baked and other sweet goods!

Now in its ninth successful season, the Market’s covered pavilion has 24 stalls where local vendors also offer locally raised grass-fed beef, sweet Missouri honey, plus original arts, crafts, and live music.

The Market will be open or shine from 8:00 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. The musical duo “Two of Us” will perform from 10 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. on June 25.

“People love our fresh, locally grown produce and merchandise that you can’t find anywhere else,” said Richard A. Kilzer, president of the Overland Farmers Market Board of Directors.

“Visitors can park beside the pavilion in our free parking lot, and vendors can load and unload their goods easily by backing up next to their covered stall,” Kilzer said.
