The Bath Farmers Market opened for its fifth season May 17 with new and seasoned vendors offering goods to market goers.

The market is one of the few in the Lehigh Valley that offers a relaxing park setting with a grill and picnic benches.

Get ready for an exciting season with weekly events. The Strawberry Festival is coming up on June 7, herbs will be celebrated on June 14 with live music and a chef demonstration and a health day is scheduled for June 21.

The market is currently accepting applications for vendors, musicians and special guests for the season.
