Hi, I’m running a series of Car Free Day Festivals along Main Street and
Next week, Sunday July 19, is our
Urban Eating day and I’d love for someone come and talk about, even
Display chickens that the City is looking to approve.
If you are interested could you please contact me
My market1886@hotmail.com .
We’d really love to have someone from your group at our FEST.
