>> Familiar face at 2nd Street Market to retire at the end of the year
And now is the time to enjoy a relaxing Sunday there. After a successful trial run in 2017, Five Rivers MetroParks opened for business Sundays starting in June — 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. — lasting through Dec. 31 this year.
It's a charming two stop shop — grab something to eat from one of more than ten food vendors including All Souped Up, Azra's Mediterranean Cuisine, Caffeine Carl, Cheeky Meat Pies, The Chef Case, Crepe Boheme and Bann Thai Noi and then head to shop for your groceries from local growers including Carroll Creek Farms, Consider the Lilies, Corner Hill Farms, Dohner's Maple Products, Freshstart Farm, Frieszell Liberty Gardens, Garber Farm, Gypsy Chicks Farm, Harry's Old Country Orchard and Produce, Homefull, Irvin Honey, Hydro Growers, KJB Farms, Mile Creek Farm and Tea Hills Farms.
>> 2nd Street Market adds Sunday hours
With booth after booth of local growers, bakers, culinary specialists and artisans this is a stop that is worth the visit whenever possible, but if Sundays are your jam, the time is definitely now.
