Deerfield Farmer’s Market Offers More Than Food

When people arrive at the Deerfield Farmers’ Market between 7:30 a.m. and 12:30 p.m. each Saturday, they have an opportunity to do more than shop for food and listen to live music.

Each week the market is opened to not for profit and civic organizations to give them a chance to let people know what they are doing. This week the Deerfield Community Nursery School and the Southlake Mosquito Abatement District were there.

“We want to give them a chance to fundraise and offer information about their cause,” Market Manager Joan Reed said.

Listen to Diane Moyno talk about the school and Barbara Struthers, both a Deerfield village trustee and a trustee of the Southlake Mosquito Abatement District, talk about what their organizations have to offer on the Patch videos.

Reed also talks about what will be happening at future Farmers’ Markets this summer.
