Fall Farmers Market to come before council

Urban Cookhouse is proposing a new fall Farmers Market on Saturday mornings in Crestline Village. The Mountain Brook City Council will consider the proposal at its meeting Monday, Sept. 14. The meeting begins at 7 p.m. and the premeeting at 5:45 p.m.

Organizers plan to start the market the last weekend of September (Sept. 26) and run it through the weekend before Thanksgiving (Nov. 21). Each market would run from 7-11 a.m.and take place on Oak Street from La Paz to Otey's Tavern.

"Our hope for this Farmers Market is to bring the community together... to provide a place for family and friends to gather on a Saturday morning to enjoy and also help out local farmers and vendors," Lindsay Horne of Urban Cookhouse wrote in a letter to the city.
