Union Square Farmers Market tomorrow?

[3rdragon]

Does anyone know what's happening with the Union Square Farmers Market? Both Freedom Food Farm and Stillman's have mentioned that it's opening tomorrow, but didn't have details, and I can't find any information about whether it's just a pickup location or if they're actually doing a real market. There's no info on the website or the facebook page. They do apparently have an email list, but I only signed up for it last night, so probably missed any announcement.

I've been signed up for the list for a week or two (what is time?), and there's been nothing. Nothing on their Facebook page since April.

Their website says they're not opening till next weekend though (the 23rd, not the 16th).

Thanks!

It looks like most things had a deadline of yesterday... clearly I should've looked into this sooner.

At the Somerville Winter Market yesterday, I overheard at least one *vendor* not being aware that the Union Square market was opening soon, and maybe having missed the opportunity to get a spot. So yeah, communication has definitely been spotty. :-)
