Farmers Market kicks off in Davenport

Buyers and sellers gather at tents with home grown and homemade food products as the first Davenport farmer’s market kicked off the season. Patrons, greeted by lively accordian music courtesy Don Vorce, found fresh vegetables including turnips, cabbages, carrots, broccoli and green beans as well as herbs, baked goods, canned items and even trees for sale. The market is expected to take place each Thursday evening at the corner of 6th Street and Maple, from 5-7:30 p.m., throughout the growing season.
