Taste of the Market to feature Jackson farmers

The Jackson County Farmers Market will hold its annual “Taste of the Market” starting at 10 a.m. Saturday, Aug. 27, featuring a variety of seasonal vegetables and local products.

A simple solar panel will be on display. There will be kid games and activities, and music. There also will be a Tomato Tasting, giving participants the opportunity to make their own tomato sandwiches using their favorite tomatoes in exchange of donations to The Community Table. A community garden helps The Community Table incorporate fresh produce in the soup kitchen’s meals.

The Farmers Market is located in downtown Sylva every Saturday on Railroad Avenue (in the Bridge Park) from 9 a.m. until noon.
