St. Bernard Seafood and Farmers Market to hold second Market Day Saturday,
May 28 

Market now operating every Saturday from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m.

 

The St. Bernard Seafood and Farmers Market will hold its second Market Day
Saturday, May 28 from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m., and it will now be operating every
Saturday through October. The market is located at the Aycock Barn at 409
Aycock Street in Arabi, Louisiana in the heart of the Old Arabi Historic
District.

 

The mission of the St. Bernard Seafood and Farmers Market is to help
increase access to fresh, locally grown produce and seafood in St. Bernard
Parish and to create an enjoyable, safe community event that brings people
together while promoting sustainable economic development, Market Manager
Ashley Proze said.  

 

This weekend will be Military Appreciation Day. Show your Military ID to
featured vendors and receive a special appreciation discount.

 

The market includes a variety of locally harvested produce and seafood, arts
and crafts, live entertainment, children's activities and more. While the
market is geared toward local farmers and fishermen so they can sell their
products to the local community, spaces will be available for local artisans
who specialize in handmade arts and crafts. Those who would like to sell
flowers, bedding plants and seeds also will be welcomed to the market.
Consumers or vendors interested in learning more about the market can email
