Coleman Hawkins Park in downtown St. Joseph will be your source for local, organic, sustainable produce this Saturday, and every Saturday through Halloween.
Json Myers and John Goode, the owners of Goode Food Delivered in downtown St Joe, have organized a farmers market in the park starting this weekend.
“Through our network of organic farmers, we have a lot of them now trying to get their food out, more than we can funnel through the store,” Myers says.
“So we got together and said let’s bring the farmers market back to downtown St. Joe.”
He expects six or seven vendors this weekend. As the harvest progresses, Myers hopes to have seven anchored tenants under the canopy and many more throughout Coleman Hawkins Park.
Don’t be surprised if you see the occasional busker, including street musicians, live painters and other artists.
The hours are from 7am to 1pm every Saturday through Halloween at Coleman Hawkins Park at Eighth & Felix Streets.
