The hugely popular Mini Kids Fest returns to the Washington Farmers Market on Saturday Sept. 7.

The Farmers Market is held weekly in the center of Downtown Washington every Saturday by Veteran’s Park, through September 28, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. In addition to farm fresh fruits, vegetables, plants and more, each week features a different special activity or theme, including musical performers, special days, and more. 

The Mini Kids Fest features live music and kids activities, Tractor Climb sponsored by Smith Tractor, and free giveaways of fidget toys for the children. 

The kid-friendly event includes tunes and more by the Rossi Stage in what has always been an entertaining day for children.

The Farmers Market then goes in a totally different direction for the last Saturday of month, Sept. 28, when Peter Grosso takes the stage to sing classic Frank Sinatra and other favorites from the “Chairman of the Board’s” contemporaries.  

In between, Steve Kunzman is the entertainment during the Potato Fest on Sept. 14 and on Sept. 21, it’s full steam ahead for the WBID’s annual Festival in the Borough which includes a full day of music, vendors and kids activities.  

Among the farmers market vendors coming this year are: Pipers Hill Farms, Greenbytes Farm, K & A Farm, Fiddler’s Farm, The Rooted Lion/Dandy Lion Acres Farm, Brogsdale Candles, Sweet Tucker’s Bake Shop, K&D Refillery, and Missy’s Angels Animal Rescue.  Other vendors who will be on hand during the season are Sourland Mountain Spirits, Bee To The Honey, Autumn Delights, Wick’ed by Anais, Melaina’s Flower Field, and Hello Georgous.
