Central Farmers Market

Once a month COTS is invited to participate as a guest vendor at the Valley's fastest growing Farmers Market in Central Phoenix, (we're certain the growth and success is due to our presence).  This Farmers Market has quickly become a fun family ritual where on Saturday mornings, the locals will walk to the market pushing strollers or pulling wagons while drinking their morning coffee and walking the dog.  It's wonderful to be a part of the neighborhood and see everyone supporting local businesses,  taking an interest in fresh produce and purchasing the latest unique treasure.  To say thank you and contribute to the community, we donate a percentage of our day's proceeds to the church.  For all you locals reading this, the Centeral Farmers Market is conveniently located on the southest corner of Central and Northern at the Crossroads Church with special summer hours from 8:00 a.m. to noon (regular hours are from 9:00 to 2:00 p.m.) and runs year round.  That's right, this Farmers Market is open rain, snow or shine.  Okay, maybe it is a stretch to say "snow" when referring to weather in the Valley of the Sun, but Brenda and I have braved the April winds and drizzle to most recently enjoying the 110 degree heat.  We promise that you'll find something (or 3 things) that you won't be able to live without.  The Vendor's quarterly schedule will be out any day, so check back and we'll let you know our upcoming Market dates.  Until then enjoy the photos.  UPDATE:  Our next Farmers Market dates are 8/4 and 9/1, we hope to see you there.
