New Farmers Market is open

The new facilities for the Farmers market in Murfreesboro is open and from the pictures posted on WGNS website it looks nice.
The market is open from 6:00 am to 11:00 am on Tuesday and Friday of each week (including holidays) from the 2nd Friday in June through the last Friday in October. It is operated from the Lane Agri-Park Community Center located at 315 John R. Rice Blvd. in Murfreesboro. Vendors sell locally grown produce, plants, and certain processed foods. Contact the Rutherford County Extension office (615-898-7710) for operating guidelines or other Farmer's Market information.
I wonder if they will sell chickens there?

This is a truly a fine place for a farmers market. I know that some will think that putting the market indoor will take away some of the “road side stand” feel of the market, but, no more standing at your stall in the rain. My only grippe about the market is the hours. With 86% of all farmers working off the farm to supplement their income, we really need the market to have weekend hours as well.
