Farmers Market—Shake off the snow with complimentary coffee & hot chocolate

January 21, 2011

Everyone knows the early bird gets the worm. That’s especially true at farmers markets where savvy shoppers know to arrive early for the best selection. That’s hard to do in the winter when there’s knee-deep snow in your driveway, but we have lots to coax you in from the cold at the Chappaqua Farmers Market.  In “Read more…” see our list of vendors for tomorrow, Saturday, January 22.

Matt the Knife-sharpener returns tomorrow, and Picklelicious, as well as a CD and book exchange spot—visit our website
