Right from the farm

There will be a farmers' market in East Boston's Central Square on Thursdays from 3 to 6 p.m. starting tomorrow, according to the state's Department of Agriculture web site.

Farmers' markets have grown in popularity in recent years and there are dozens in the Boston area. There was one in Eastie last year at the beach (see photo), but it looked sparsely attended when I stopped by. Hopefully, more people will check it out this year.

This is excellent news. I do hope this market thrives and becomes permanent.

the beach was great, hopefully the price of gas will not keep them away.
