 At the Market, September 21st

<http://www.friendsofpretzelpark.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/Autumn.jpg>

*Alright, so usually we try to have some entertaining and silly summary of
the vendors at this week’s farmers market. But this week is Parks On Tap
see, a really great event in Pretzel Park. And this week my spouse upped
the struggle with me to be more ‘present’ and ‘connected’ see, something
never a strength in my skill set. So I’m stressed a wee bit, see? And this
week is Parks On Tap, see? And I really needed a beer, see? Or maybe more
than one beer, see? So all I know is I went to Parks On Tap last night and
this morning woke up in the Dog Run with three pugs licking my face. So I’m
running late. So just please come to our Farmers Market and come to Parks
On Tap. And if you see me lying in the Dog Park at least please keep the
pugs offa me.*

We’ve always felt that our market’s location — in Pretzel Park which
includes a playground and dog run — has contributed to making the market
kid-friendly, pet-friendly, and family-friendly.
We’re also convenient to public transportation: SEPTA Routes: 35, 61,
Manayunk-Norristown Regional Rail (Manayunk Line) *Map here*
