A steady light rain and cool temperatures greeted shoppers Saturday, April 10, 2021, at the season opening of the Downtown Lawrence Farmers' Market. Nonetheless, vendors and organizers were pleased with the turnout.
About an hour before the first Downtown Lawrence Farmers’ Market of the year wrapped up, Roger Gipson had no products left to offer shoppers on a chilly, rainy Saturday morning.
“We’re sold out,” he said as he stood under the Firefly Farm booth’s awning to escape the light rain. He was running the booth for his son, JT Hamilton Slate, and the lilacs and potted plants from Gipson’s North Lawrence home and Slate’s fields south of Clinton Lake had been quickly snatched up by shoppers on the market’s opening day.
