I know we are! Opening day of the North City Farmers' Market will be Saturday, June 2nd.  The Market operates every Saturday from June through mid-October from 9 am-Noon.  We are located on the Crown Square Development of North 14th St., just across the street from Crown Candy Kitchen. 

Opening Day will feature live musical entertainment by the St. Louis Caledonian Pipe Band starting at 10 am!  We are very excited to have this lively band of pipers or drummers to start the season off right!  Check out the band's website here: http://www.slcpb.com/  The group has generously offered to donate their time at the market this year and we are so very grateful for that.  Thanks to Sarah Kate Buckles, Manager of the Old North Grocery Co-Op, for coordinating the group's performance!  Don't miss this unique and impressive performance.

Opening Day will also feature children's activities and, of course, some of the finest St. Louis-area farmers, crafters, artisans, and merchants.  Stay tuned for more upcoming events and news from the North City Farmers' Market!
