Ellington Farmers' Market "The Place to be on Saturday Morning"

Creepy crawlers take up residence at Arbor Park this Saturday as we celebrate Bugs and Bees.  Take the kids to view Pease Bees' living beehive and the bug booth sponsored by our friends from the Lutz Museum.   Several vendors will have special bee and bug-themed items this week (yikes, what could they be?).   Sing along with Dr. Uke and the Glastonbury Ukulele band as you shop for the freshest local produce and homemade products in the area.   Guest vendors include Green Valley Farm with their heritage pork, yummy local sweet corn from Neal Farm, O'live a Little Gourmet olive oils and vinegars, and Lori Spielman with her gorgeous succulents and cacti.    Don't forget to bring an extra resuseable bag as the season's freshest veggies and fruits are at their peak.  Ask a friend or neighbor to meet you at Arbor Park this Saturday.
