ones and let them cool down in the outdoor pop-up fountains or take part in
other children's activities.



Each Saturday, the St. Bernard Seafood and Farmers Market provides fresh
food and fresh ideas to help local residents improve their quality of life.

much more. Additionally, the Farmers Market features local artisans selling
their handmade original crafts.



The market will operate every Saturday from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. through
October, rain or shine. It will be geared toward local farmers and fishermen
so they can sell their products to the local community. However, 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 are welcomed.
