Peekskill Winter Farmers Market Ribbon-Cutting is Saturday

You don’t have to wait till 11:45 AM to go to Peekskill’s new indoor winter farmer’s market, which got underway last week.

But if you do, Mayor Frank Catalina and members of the City Council will be there to officially kick off the inaugural 2015 winter season.

The market is like a village green—only once a week! And it’s specially nice during the winter months, when everyone gets tired of hibernating. Everyone sees friends and acquaintances there every Saturday through April.

You can enjoy live entertainment while shopping for farm fresh produce, organic meat, award winning cheese, and artisan baked goods.

Look for rotating craft vendors, and check the website for a schedule of live entertainment.

The Peekskill Farmers’ Market, Saturdays at the Field Library, 4 Nelson Ave.10 a.m. - 2 p.m.

For more than 20 years the Peekskill Business Improvement District (BID) has sponsored this important weekly shopping event in the European tradition of outdoor markets, in the heart of Downtown.
