Walk to the Market Day Saturday in Silver Spring

The Urbanites of Silver Spring who love walking everywhere will get a chance to showcase their skills Saturday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. during Walk To The Market Day.

Silver Spring residents can stop by either the Fenton Street Market (FSM), open between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., or the FRESHFARM Market, open between 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.

This week an email from Fenton Street promotes Deb Soromenho Jewelry. She will bring handmade metal jewelry and Mokuzai Furniture: Creative handmade wooden furniture.

The Meditation Museum also will be at the market to show patrons tools for personal change. You can also meet "the man behind the blobs.
Molas 4 U bring original Kuna handicrafts from South America."

After shopping you can particpate in the Walk Silver Spring Survey.

The survey is gathering information on pedestrians, such as age and gender, perceptions of infrastructure and driver behavior, and how a pedestrian makes the decision to walk rather than drive.
