is our eight full season of
farmers’ markets at the Stahl-Conrad Homestead (a non-profit
historical society) at 9724 W. Forest Home Avenue (1 block north of
Grange and
Forest Home). Market dates this year are June 18, July 2, 16, 30,
August 13, September 3, 17 and October 8. 22, 2011. Everyone
is welcome to attend. Market hours
are 8 a.m. to 12 p.m. The Harvest at the Homestead farmers’ market recalls the Hales Corners Stock Fair which was held monthly from 1871 to 1958 on Forest Home Avenue from Highway 100 north to Grange Avenue. Unlike the Stock Fair, however, there won’t be any farm animals for sale! For detailed
information about events and vendors, and to sign up to get e-mail
updates prior to each market, go to http://www.harvestatthehomestead.org/.
If you would
like to be involved as a vendor or a volunteer, or if you have any
questions or suggestions, please call the market coordinator, Robert
Stockinger, at 414-708-0584 (please leave your name and phone number). |
