Greenfield Farmers Market Debuts Sunday

The debut of the first-ever Greenfield Farmers Market is just days away.

Opening Day is slated for Sunday, June 23, at Konkel Park, 5151 W. Layton Ave. The market will be open from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. following a ribbon-cutting ceremony at 9:30 a.m.

Vendors will bring a myriad of items to the market, from traditional fresh produce to things like popcorn, sauces, salsas, locally made bath and body products and much more.

"In a year or two, this will be one of the most successful farmers markets in Milwaukee County," Greenfield Mayor Michael Neitzke told Greenfield NOW.

This Sunday will also feature local jazz band Outside the Box, a special demonstration booth guest and the local Hardwood Café on location with lunch available for purchase.

The forecast, according to the Greenfield Farmers Market Facebook page is a high of 81 degrees.

Division of Public Works crews have been hard at work preparing the northeast end of Konkel Park for the market, constructing and paving a path for vendors and customers alike. Funding for the path came courtesy of a $30,000 donation from the Dan Jansen Family Fest.

The Greenfield Farmers Market will run every Sunday through Oct. 27.
