The Ellington Farmers Market celebrates (finally) the warmth that allows us to plant things and joyfully watch them grow Saturday May 25th from 9-12 in Arbor Park. Whether you are a seasoned gardener or are planning to get your hands dirty for the first time, we will have experts available to assist with your gardening efforts. A Master Composter will be on hand to answer questions on improving your soil to benefit your plants There will be annuals, perennials, succulents, herbs, and vegetable plants including a huge variety of heirloom tomatoes available for purchase. Children can plant a heirloom tomato plant or seeds to take home and Ellington Agway's experts will be on hand armed with knowledge and information on gardening products. Bring your baskets and/or reusable bags to the market on Saturday, and think about growing something of your own!
