Friday, May 6th will kick off the Farmers Market Season in Shawnee, Ohio.  Starting at 5:00 PM, vendors will gather near the train caboose off 2nd Street and OH-155. Customers can expect to find locally grown and produced fruits, vegetables, dairy, baked goods, crafts, and other merchandise. Alcoholic beverages will also be available for purchase. Shopping will be accompanied by live music!

The market is hosted by Destination Shawnee, in collaboration with Rural Action, ACENet and the Southern Perry Incubation Center for Entrepreneurs (SPICE). Destination Shawnee’s aim is to complement the assets Shawnee already possess as a destination for outdoor recreation by setting up recurring events—like the First Friday Market—to boost commercial activity and tourism.

The market runs May-October. Grab a friend and take a trip to Shawnee, Ohio!
