Throughout this past summer the Midtown Mall in New Lebanon was the site of an amazing success. What was this success? The Lebanon Valley Farmers Market that took place every Sunday from 10 am until 2 pm.
In response to the tremendous outpouring of interest from customers and vendors alike, maybe because we all miss the warmth and sunshine of summer a little, too, the First Annual Holiday Bizarre Bazaar will take place on Sunday, December 12, from 10 am until 2 pm. This event/market is primarily an indoor event though there may be some overflow into the “Green” if there is enough of the right kind of snow to build snowmen, make snow angels or sip piping hot, wonderful locally roasted coffee.
