Farmers market open in Drayton

DRAYTON - Saturday mornings, from about 9am to 1pm, the parking lot between the Post Office and the old Windfield’s restaurant is home to local vendors selling their wares.

Goods range from cosmetics and soaps to photography prints, home baking, honey and, most recently, organic vegetables grown just down the road.

Organizers state there is much opportunity for growth and if anyone is interested in becoming a vendor, they can contact Brad Wittich for more information at 519-846-0058.

Those interested in supporting some smaller local businesses and young entrepreneurs are encouraged to stop by, whether on a morning stroll or during Saturday errands.

With most of the vendors planning to be at the Draytion Fair on Aug. 11, the market won’t operate this Saturday. However, regular vendor Melisa  Luymes said the market will be back in action for the following weekend.
