Lehigh Farmers Market held every Saturday
By MEGHAN BRADBURY - | Feb 17, 2021
A new community event was brought to Lehigh Acres the second week of January and it will continue every Saturday until the end of April.
Seth DeBartolo, who is an ordained pastor through Amigos En Cristo and was recently commissioned to work with Beautiful Savior Lutheran Church in Lehigh, saw that when people were laid off, they were finding things they wanted to do rather than had to do.
“One of the ways that I like to go into the community is simply to be and exist in the community,” he said. “As the opportunity arose people were looking for a place to show off their new-found interest.”
