The teeny, tiny but very special Thursday market returns TODAY July 12 to it’s spot near Coddingtown Mall.    Although this market is  specially for WIC* recipients it is of course open to the public.    Fruit and vegetables are emphasized but it’s got the best of everything including wonderful prepared foods featuring the wonderful farm market breakfasts of the Windsor Green Grocer.

Today Chef Elizabeth Eichhold will be demonstrating seasonal recipes.
