Fort Farmers Market has partnered with Blodgett Pet & Garden Center to create a new evening shopping event in Fort Atkinson, according to a news release from the Fort Atkinson Area Chamber of Commerce.
According to the release: The unique shopping experience, called: “An Evening In the Garden With Fort Farmers Market,” will take place at Blodgett Pet & Garden Center, 1222 Janesville Avenue, July 15, from 5 to 8 p.m., and will feature live music, craft vendors, wine tasting and on-site food for purchase.
“We’re excited to offer this new evening shopping option for our customers and vendors,” said Fort Farmers Market Manager, Alisha Bade within the release.
“While customers can expect to see some of the Saturday morning vendors that they know and love, we will also have several new vendors with a new range of handcrafted products to explore,” she added.
Live music will be performed between 5:30 and 7:30 p.m. by two local favorites: The Jason Thomas Band and Joe Ingram.
“It should be a lot of fun. People can come, listen to music and grab some dinner while they shop. Rock River Wellness will be selling delicious paninis and smoothies. The Fort Atkinson FFA will also be hosting a cookout fundraiser as another great dinner option; I can practically smell the grill firing up now,” Bade said.
Vendors will be located inside Blodgett Pet & Garden Center’s large greenhouse, and throughout the outdoor garden center and property. Blodgett’s indoor store will hold extended hours and be open during the market so customers can shop the many wines and gifts Blodgett offers, according to the release.
Lauri Latsch, president of Blodgett Garden Center, said: “We are looking forward to hosting this evening event in the garden center and excited about this new experience.”
