The Florence-Lauderdale Farmers Market Board of Directors will be hosting it's second annual Welcome Dinner for all current venders, those interested in applying to become a new vendor, and their family/helpers/employees who will be working a booth at the Farmers Market in the 2026 season. We want to encourage fellowship by sharing a meal together and have open communication between the market board, market manager and vendors. We are planning a buffet style BBQ supper at the Broadway Rec Center location again, starting at 6:00 pm. We will have
- Guest speakers from the Alabama Dept of Ag & Industries discussing new and innovative things happening in the farming industry for 2026
- A Sweet Grown Alabama advisor on-hand,
- The Extension Service will have a table to get your 2026 Grower's Permit
- Renee, our market manager, will be taking applications for the 2026 season
- and we will be going over special events we are planning in the 2026 season as well as any rule questions or changes for the 2026 Farmers Market season.
We will also have DOOR PRIZES this year!! Donors will be announced as we receive them.
Please be sure to RSVP to this event so we can get an accurate head count for food and. You can also message us directly with HOW MANY will be attending with you.
