2 down and 11 to go! It was another great week at the farmer’s market!
Welcome to Wellville! Thanks to Sarah Dahlinghaus and the Creating Healthy Communities Coalition, Wellville kicked the market off to an early start with a 1 mile walk that was lead by Clark County
Health Commissioner Charles Patterson ! Also walking were New Carlisle City Manager Randy Bridge, Springfield City Manager Jim Bodenmiller and organizer Sarah Dahlinghaus. The fifty walkers then visited Wellville, a team of twelve health exhibitors, including a boxing demonstration, and all kinds of free give a ways. The focus for Wellville was to bring people out, get people thinking healthier, and support the farmer’s market. They definitely hit the nail on the head.
Our live music was performed by the ever growing Kids Helping Kids Music Ministry, led by John and Karen Flaugher. Going 6 years strong, KHK has performed at over 210 venues! Their talent and passion shines through all they do.
Primerica is happy and proud to be one of our cornerstone sponsors. You may recognize their name because they’re also a vendor. Primerica is a Main Street company for Main Street families.
