FINALLY:
IF YOU HAVEN'T YET VISITED THE URBAN GARDEN MARKET ON SOUTH BEND'S WEST SIDE, YOU STILL HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO DO SO.
THE MARKET WILL BE OPEN EACH SATURDAY MORNING, FROM 8 A.M. TO 1 P.M., UNTIL OCTOBER 31.
IT IS LOCATED AT 1025 N. BENDIX DRIVE, ONE BLOCK SOUTH OF LINCOLN WAY WEST.
THIS
OPEN-AIR FARMERS MARKET HAS RESULTED FROM COMMUNITY EFFORTS TO BRING
FRESH PRODUCE (AND BAKED GOODS) TO THIS UNDER-SERVED AREA OF SOUTH
BEND. COME FOR THE FOOD -- AND ALSO FOR THE SPIRIT OF COMMUNITY THAT
YOU'LL FIND THERE.
