The Downtown Business Improvement Area will be managing the Farmer's Market for the next two seasons.

The BIA will receive support from the City in regards to public health protocols.

Downtown BIA Chair Jesse Boles says this is a good move for the market.

"Our strategic plan is to take the market and help it grow. We want to use the market as a baseline catalyst for all our downtown efforts and help drive economic growth for the city. We look forward to welcoming both vendors and visitors this year."

So far, 25 vendors have been confirmed for the market, with a goal of over 35 vendors by opening day.

More information on the market can be found here.
