Gravette Farmers' Market Is Going Strong Every Saturday

— Gravette Farmers' Market, located in Old Town Park each Saturday morning, "is still going strong," said Allyson Ransom, who directs the operation.

"There is lots of fresh picked produce with local vendors selling apples, grapes, melons, okra, several varieties of tomatoes and more."

She added, "We also have local honey and new craft items, including unique hand-carved emu eggs."

By special request, the market will be extended through October as pumpkins and gourds and late vegetables will soon ripen.

The market is open from 9 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. each Saturday.
