TOGETHER WITH THE BOZEMAN FARMERS’ MARKET

Today, we're partnering with the Bozeman Farmers’ Market!

Every year, this is one of the local events I most look forward to.

Great food vendors, fresh local produce, live music, artisan crafts… all in beautiful Lindley Park.

What’s not to love?

There are only two summer markets left this season:

🗓️ Tuesday, September 2nd from 5pm-8pm

🗓️ Tuesday, September 9th from 5pm-8pm

So if you haven’t made it to one of the markets yet, this is your chance!
