MTSU Farmers’ Market Open Wednesday, but Closed Friday for Holiday
(MURFREESBORO) — The MTSU Plant and Soil Science Club student farmers’ market will be open from 11 a.m. until 5 p.m. Wednesday in the lobby of the Stark Ag Building, but the Friday, July 3, market is canceled because the university will be closed for the Independence Day holiday, Dr. Nate Phillips, professor in agribusiness and agriscience, said Tuesday.
“We have set up a special table in the lobby of the Stark Ag Building behind the Cason-Kennedy Nursing Building,” Phillips said. “The veggies will be on the ‘honor’ system with prices posted. Just pick up your veggies and leave the money in the main office of the SAG.”
Phillips said items that will be available include tomatoes (slicing, roma and grape); hot peppers (jalapeños, cayennes and habaneros); baby cabbage; onions (red and whites); twinkle eggplant; green beans; okra; and more.
