Welcome back from summer vacations! Come back together with your friends and neighbors at the Richmond Farmers Market. Buy your groceries for the week, pick up a gift for someone, dine, and catch some live music. Starting at 5, Massachusetts singer & rhythm guitar player Walt Jones will be offering up folk/rock classics of the ‘70s and ‘80s from the Beatles, Jimmy Buffett, John Prine, Cat Stevens, Neil Young, and more. Irresistable, golden tunes in deft hands. (Walt has family in Huntington and is a regular visitor to our market.)
