AMERICA'S OLDEST OPERATING FARMERS MARKET
CM
SPRING HAS SPRUNG AGAIN and Lancaster Central Market is blossoming with local goodness. As the days grow longer and weather grows warmer, your favorite local market buzzes as farmers begin to harvest their spring produce. The arrival of spring is marked by the sweet signature flavors of the succulent raspberry, blackberry, and strawberry ( just to name a few). Fruits are freshest when you can count their distance travelled by the minute. And we all know there is nothing quite like that first bite into a ripe berry, plump with juice. The returning warmth of the sun brings the landscape back to life as the trees bud and color returns with a newfound vibrancy. The bright fruits and veggies lining the aisles paint Market, creating a kaleidoscope of colorful art. The royally green asparagus is a spring staple, and it’s especially tasty when it’s grown in Lancaster’s own backyard. With that skip back in your step, head downtown to Lancaster Central Market, where the freshest fruits and veggies are at your fingertips. Straight from the farm to your table. THOM’S BREAD
