Don’t forget to visit Bath Farmers Market 3-6:30 p.m. every Friday at Keystone Park, Route 329 and Green Street.
Stop by for healthy smoothies, tasty grilled items, craft beer, baked goods, flowers, handmade face masks and more.
Just a friendly reminder while we are in the yellow phase: There are no changes to the current farmers market protocol. Per governor’s orders, vendors, customers and anyone attending the market are still required to wear masks and maintain 6 feet of distance.
Thanks for doing your part!
