Market Tips

Some tips to help you fully enjoy your visit to the market:

1. Be sure to scan your badge during each visit to enter the free raffles to win vendor produce and products!
    
2. The market is held outdoors, rain or shine, so come dressed accordingly. If severe weather threatens, call 684-3136 option 5.
    
3. Be sure to visit the LIVE FOR LIFE table for healthy recipes and information on other LIVE FOR LIFE programs.
    
4. Sturdy shopping bags or baskets will help you carry your purchases back to your work location and/or car.
    
5. Carry small bills so making change will be easy.
    
6. Ask plenty of questions: How is it grown? How do you cook it? Who has a certain kind of product? Our vendors love getting to know their customers and are happy to share details about the products they grow and make.
    
7. Tell us what you think about the market! Complete an evaluation online or at the LIVE FOR LIFE table and you will receive a special "thank you!"
    
8. Sign up to receive the LIVE FOR LIFE e-mail notice describing the week's highlights.
