Caravan Farm Theatre kicks off spring 2012 today with its first Caravan Market Day of the season.
Market Days feature locally grown produce, including the renowned Armstrong asparagus; handmade goods; baking; flowers; plants and ready-to-eat foods.
Also on offer are wagon rides, a petting zoo, face-painting and live music.
“We’re excited to be offering something for everyone in the family,” said Courtenay Dobbie, Caravan’s artistic director. “In addition to wagon rides, we’ve got Gord and Cheri Bolduc from Mostly Minis coming in with their miniature goats that kids love to visit.”
Live music is always a part of Caravan Market Days, and the Mother’s Day market today will feature popular local band, Cod Gone Wild.
“It’s so sweet to see the kids up and dancing to the live music at our markets,” said Dobbie.
Caravan Market Days will be held on five Sundays this summer, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., today, June 13, July 1, Aug. 5 and Sept. 2. Admission is free.
