Five Things: Farmers Market, Snow Watch

Your guide for life in East Greenwich today, Dec. 29.


Transfer Station is open: Snow looks to be on the way. If you’ve still got leaf bags hanging around, now’s a good time to get rid of them. The Transfer Station is open from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Coastal Growers Winter Farmers Market: The Winter Farmers Market in North Kingstown features many vendors from the EG Farmers Market as well as some others. Miss your Tallulah’s Tacos? You can pick some up at the winter market! You can also pick up produce, meat, baked goods and artisan goods. From 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the Lafayette Mill at 650 Ten Rod Road in North Kingstown.

Story Hour at Symposium Books: Children (and their adults) are invited to Story Hour at Symposium Books . Every week they pick a new story and read it to the kids with animal crackers and fun. Favorite stories are "No Matter What" and "Jungle Explorer." Come early and help pick the story, and better yet, there is a 10 percent additional discount on everything in the store during story hour! 11:30 a.m.

Trash Pickup: If your regular trash day is Friday, you should be ready for pickup TODAY. 

Weather: We may get real snow today, starting as early as late morning. If you have snow pictures to share, upload them here.
