(La Porte, IN) - The farmers market in La Porte on Saturday will have a sunflower theme. Normally, the Sunflower Fair drawing thousands of people annually to La Porte’s downtown area would have been tomorrow but it was cancelled because of COVID-19.
Angela Rose, the city’s Downtown Coordinator, said people can still get a taste of the Sunflower Fair at the farmers market at Lincolnway and Monroe St. Rose said due to limited space, the market cannot come close to replacing the Sunflower Fair but there will be sunflower paintings and demonstrations along with other sunflower related happenings to try and fill some of the void.
A few of the vendors normally at the Sunflower Fair will also be on hand to serve people during the market which runs every Saturday from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. through October.
