The outdoor farmers markets are underway in Chelsea.
Remember that the Wednesday market is taking place at a new time – from 10 a.m.-3 p.m.
The location is the same as last year – in the parking lot of Chelsea State Bank, 1010 S. Main St., at the corner of M52 and Old US-12.
You’ll see some new vendors this season including Rachel Johnson, who owns The Mitten Peanut Butter Company. She buys her own specially roasted peanuts and offers a variety of flavors. Johnson also sells peanut butter cookies as well as peanut butter treats for dogs.
