Its a beautiful day for a farmers market!

This is a market you wont want to miss! And speaking of things you dont want to miss NEXT WEEK is our rescheduled Seafood Throwdown. Featuring Chef Ken from The Blarney Stone and Stephen Pierce from Beth Israel Deaconess Food Services. Our chefs will compete to formulate delicious creations featuring a mystery seafood ingredient and showcasing local produce available at the farmers market.
