Farmer's Market to open in Bristol Friday

Starting May 1, this coming Friday, the RI DEM is opening Colt Park Farmer's Market in Bristol. This will be open for the season every Friday from 2 -  6 pm.

In the first few weeks of operation, the market will offer mostly bedding plants, hanging plants, cut flowers, early vegetable crops, honey, and maple syrup. More vendors will join with traditional summer crops as they are harvested.
