Farmer's Market 8th Anniversary Celebration

Thursday, July 14, 3-7 pm

You are invited to Riverdale Park's 8th Anniversary celebration for our Town Farmer's Market this Thursday, July 14 from 3-7 pm!

Join us to celebrate the preservation of Maryland agriculture and the growth of community-based farmer's markets. We will have an especially large selection of vendors, Live Music by Waverly, a clown for the kids and a host of confirmed dignitaries including several area elected officials from the County, General Assembly and the Mayors of neighboring communities. The event is co-sponsored by the Maryland Agriculture Development Commission, who will host a booth about their work to help Maryland farmers transition from tobacco growing to alternative crops.

Be sure to join us so that you can take part in our hourly FREE raffle to win $25 gift certificates for the Riverdale Park Farmer's Market.
