Ellisville Farmers Market Kicks Off Thursday

Thursday marks the 2012 opening of the Ellisville Community Farmers Market at Bluebird Park.

The Ellisville Community Farmers Market returns Thursday night at from 4 to 7:30 p.m., when homegrown produce andΒ handmade food products take center stage (at least until Thursday, June 7, when Ellisville's free concert series kicks off).

Check out the incomplete list of vendors expected Thursday. If you don't catch them today, however, worry not: The farmers market returns next week. Is there a special vendor you can't wait to get some fresh goods from? Tell us who it is in the comments section below.
