Farmers Market Today 11-1 p.m.

Campus Kitchen announces that we're changing the time of the West Bank Farmers Market. We're actually just swapping the times of the two markets. The new times are:

Tuesdays
Augsburg Foss Chapel: 11-1 p.m.
Brian Coyle Center: 2-5 p.m.

It's going to serve Brian Coyle much better, and should be a slight improvement for most people on campus. Now, come out on your lunch break. Purchase some fresh veggies to snack on, or get a fresh loaf of Campus Kitchen's zucchini bread or something from New French Bakery. Music and lunch options might be added in the coming weeks.

If you'd like to get regular messages about the market, including seasonal recipes and other information, sign up here: http://listserv.augsburg.edu/sympa/subscribe/westbankfarmersmarket-list
