Warm & Dry Saturday

Pleasantville Farmers Market is open Saturday, 8:30am - 1:00pm

It feels good getting outside and reconnecting -- especially when shopping at the Pleasantville Farmers Market. With temps in the 50's, and no rain expected, this Saturday is likely to feel more comfortable than any we've had outside yet this season. Stop by to gather herbs, radishes, bok choy, fresh greens, meats, wines and other spring offerings -- for this week's meals or for Easter Sunday. Also, Colleges Against Cancer will visit with information about their upcoming Relay For Life event at Pace. See you at the Market!
