Come to the first official Saturday outdoor farmers market of the summer at Chelsea’s Palmer Commons on Main Street between the hours of 8 a.m.- 1 p.m.

The variety of fresh produce keeps getting bigger. Choose from fresh strawberries, salad greens, potatoes, mushrooms, snap peas, asparagus, rhubarb, and more, with organic options as well.

Native plants will be for sale. There will also be herbs, seasonings, and jam, as well as eggs and meats.

There’s a huge choice of fresh baked breads, cakes, cookies, and muffins.

Crafts will be available too, including pottery, jewelry, cards, and more.

Musician Loyse Hoffman will perform easy listening acoustical country and folk music.
