Pottstown kicked off their outdoor farmers market Thursday with a Cinco De Mayo celebration, three weeks before the market's grand opening May 26.
The Pottstown Downtown Improvement District Authority welcomed residents and guests starting at 4 p.m. for music, dancers and a chili contest to celebrate a Mexican holiday.
If you can't make Thursday, the market's official grand opening is on May 26 and is open every Thursday night from 4 to 8 p.m. until October 13.
Over 15 vendors will be in attendance, from farmers selling fresh produce to artisan meats and cheeses and will change regularly to keep lots of variety available.
