It's Opening Day!
Catch all y'all at Edgewater Monday Market from 3pm-7pm today. Fresh produce, meats, baked goods, prepared meals, cold drinks, snacks, desserts, live music starting at 4pm.
Many of the same celebrity vendors you'll find at the big weekend markets in other neighborhoods, but without the 30 minute wait in line.
Why? Because it's cooler near the lake.
