A short bike ride, but a great
destination!
We've got a great roster of vendors for the
Cheverly Community Market (CCM) this week to help you meet
the BUY LOCAL
CHALLENGE from June 19-27
(http://www.buy-local-challenge.com/). The Governor kicks off the
challenge on Friday at the State House, and every county has issued
proclamations in support.
Help Prince George's County come through with flying colors by stocking up at the CCM this Saturday, July 19, from 8:00 to 11:00 a.m. Vendors and products will include:
Jug Bay Market Farm and Garden: Including tomatoes, basil, corn, beans, potatoes, melons, and cucumbers.
C&E Farms: Potted herbs -- We encourage you to buy a pot of one of Emma's wonderful varieties of mint. She has chocolate mint, apple mint, orange mint, spearmint, and peppermint. Here's a spot for you to look around and get inspired to "experi- mint" this week!
