LUNA PIER – The second annual Christmas in July event will take place from 5-7 p.m. Wednesday at the Luna Pier Farmers Market at First Street Park.

“The event is a fun theme for the midway point of our outdoor market season,” Amy Gardner, market manager, said. "We like to blend the themes of Christmas and summer fun together for this special market day. Our biggest goal is to support local businesses and community."

Christmas in July will feature food and produce vendors, children’s activities and food trucks.

About 15 vendors will sell items.

“We’re excited that fresh produce and home-baked goods will be available. We are hoping to have fresh farm eggs as well. There will be a variety of artisan products available," Gardner said.

Salad greens and kale were among the items sold recently at the Luna Pier Farmers Market.
