Really. Only in York County!

Everyone had a great time, and the market was packed, reports Linda Birmingham, marketing committee chairwoman for the York Historic Farmers' Market Association.

If you want to help Linda and her group promote the market, the York Historic Farmers' Market Association holds regular meetings that you're welcome to attend! The next one is 6 p.m. Wednesday, Oct. 28, at Union Lutheran Church, 408 W. Market St. - right across from the market. (Use the Penn Street door to enter.)

If you're lucky, you might find me there. My mom and I attend occasionally, when schedules permit, and we're very supportive of the group's efforts because we love the market so much!
