Saturday and Sunday, May 10 and 11, are special days at Pybus Market. Here’s why:
>>> On Saturday May 10, the popular Wenatchee Valley Farmers Market opens its season from 8:00am to 1:00pm in the west parking lot. Live music will also be outside during the same hours. 25 to 30 vendors will be present, with organic and conventional produce, fresh radishes, lettuces and greens, onions, asparagus, leeks, herbs, rhubarb, and bok choy. Food vendors participating in the WVFM include: tacos, waffledogs (new vendor), Asian food, smoothies, Mama D’s bakery goodies, and fresh apple cider. Artisans participating in the WVFM include: artisan soap, jewelry, clothing, jams and jellies, cherry wood spoons, fresh ground coffee, honey, grass fed natural beef, wooden crafts, goat milk, body products, fresh ground flours, artisan breads and wine tasting.
>>> Also on Saturday, the Columbia River Music Conservatory is helping celebrate the one year anniversary of Pybus Market by performing a concert from 3:00pm to 5:00pm to raise funds to purchase a piano for Pybus. Pybus Market is a wonderful community gathering place, so come on down to help them raise money to buy a piano so the market is filled with music all year round.
