Celebrating its 14th season, Glenwood\u2019s Downtown Market & Music Series will welcome vendors and artists into Centennial Park every Tuesday for the next 15 weeks.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was just a group of women who decided that we should have a farmers market in downtown Glenwood to bring the community together,\u201d Glenwood\u2019s Downtown Market & Music Series board member Cindy Svatos said of the summer tradition, which began in 2005. \u201cIt\u2019s something the community appreciates, and we love doing it for them.\u201d<\/p>\n

Beginning June 11 and running through Sept. 17, residents and tourists alike can enjoy vendors and live music between 4 p.m. and 8 p.m. in Centennial Park located at the corner of Grand Avenue and Ninth Street.<\/p>\n

Local farmers sell produce, food vendors offer everything from tamales to ice cream, and artisans showcase an assortment of handmade jewelry and pottery as area musicians provide the tunes week in and week out.<\/p>\n

However, despite being kept intentionally small, Glenwood\u2019s Downtown Market & Music Series would not exist without the help of numerous helping hands in the community, Svatos explained.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis year \u2014 just three weeks ago \u2014 we found out that we were going to have to pay for our own street barricades, and it was an outrageous amount of money for us,\u201d Svatos said of the costly expenditure, which organizers were unsure how they would fund.<\/p>\n

\u201cMark Gould graciously offered to pay for all of the barricades, so that was huge,\u201d Svatos said.<\/p>\n

Additionally, local nonprofit Feed My Sheep assists with setting up and cleaning up Glenwood\u2019s Downtown Market & Music Series every Tuesday over the course of the summer season.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe put out a call for help, and Feed My Sheep said we can send you guys,\u201d Svatos said. \u201cWe couldn\u2019t do it without them.\u201d<\/p>\n

In a day and age where more people carry less cash, Glenwood\u2019s Downtown Market also accepts credit, debit and EBT cards, too.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe accept EBTs, which are food stamps, and several years ago we started offering double up food stamps,\u201d Svatos explained. \u201cPeople each week can come and they can swipe their EBT cards for $20 and we will double it up to 40.\u201d<\/p>\n

Glenwood\u2019s Downtown Market, as in years past, will also feature a music series comprising local musicians performing an assortment of genres.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s just a delightful way of spending a Tuesday.\u201d<\/p>\n
