As well as a great batch of rotating vendors that will join us anywhere from 2-12 weeks," she said. The market will open June 1 and will run every Saturday from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. …

I've been told that Farmers Markets are awesome. I work with a guy who hits one in Cambridge and he shares stories of unbelievable great deals and specials. I'll be sure to hit the Stoughton Farmers Market on Sat 10/06. Is that the parking lot in front of Podhale Deli and those other stores?
