The Kent Farmers Market opens the 2013 season on Saturday, June 1 at Town Square Plaza, the downtown park at the corner of Second Avenue and Smith Street.
The annual market runs from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. each Saturday through Sept. 28. The open-air market is sponsored by the Kent Lions Club.
Vendors will sell fruits, vegetables, flowers, food and crafts at the market. The types of produce available changes every couple of weeks depending on which crops are ready to sell. Strawberries, cherries, corn, onions, peppers, apples and melons are among the local produce that shoppers will find.
The Kent Lions Club took over operations of the market in 1974 after several other groups ran it.
