The 1st monthly Get Green Organic Food and Artist Market was a soft, but successful start! Christina Padgett, with the Mount Dora Center for the Arts has started something that all of us locals have been asking for ... and looking for ... and waiting for ... a Farmer's Market in downtown!A place that we can walk to where we can get our healthy local veggies and crafts. Only, Christina plans to add her own creative glitter to the event by having live music and local artists.
Dare I say, I hope this grows big enough to take up the whole alley from 5th all the way down to 4th.The Center's Organic Food and Artist Market takes place on the FIRST SATURDAY OF EVERY MONTH in the Center For the Arts Building and back garden on 5th Avenue from 10 am - 2 pm.
From Christina,"Customers can enjoy conscious friendly purchases by buying items that are not only good for them, but also supports a sustainable supply chain which has a positive impact on the local environment and economy. As you can imagine, word of mouth is what drives the success of our community events. Please tell your friends about our project & let them know how they can get involved!"
