As a resident of Ansonia I'm happy the city now has its own farmers' market.
The market in the municipal parking lot on West Main Street was open for business Thursday for the first time. Three local farms were represented.
A small but steady stream of customers came through to see what was for sale. Everyone seemed pleased the market was there.
I bought a beautiful flowering plant for half the price I would have had to pay at a retail store.
My husband bought several different kinds of vegetables for just $5.
Kudos go to Economic Development Commission chairman Vinnie Scarlata and commission members for turning an idea into a reality in just a few short weeks.
And city officials are to be commended as well for quickly approving the concept.
See you Saturday at the farmer's market!
