RUSHVILLE - The 2021 Heart of Rushville Farmers’ and Artisans’ Market season is quickly approaching. Opening day will be Saturday, May 22. The Market opens at 9 a.m. and runs until 12:30 p.m. every Saturday until the end of September.
Last year, there were many restrictions, but organizers said the Market had a very good season. In 2021, organizers will be bringing back some of the fun events that were missed in 2020.
This year, the Market is bringing back the Little Sprouts Children’s program. The programs will begin on June 5 and run through Sept. 11.
All programs will begin at 10 a.m. and are open to any school-aged child. The programs will focus mainly on gardening, farming, healthy soil, recycling, and other earth-friendly topics. Organizers try to do hands-on projects with the kids so they can make or plant something to take home with them.
