Friday was the annual kick-off for the Pine River Market Square. On a day that barely held onto its name, the annual Frost Free Friday kickoff event brought determined vendors and chilly visitors. All throughout downtown Pine River, local businesses welcomed the unofficial first day of summer.
Happy Dancing Turtle and dozens of local businesses gave away seedling plants for free as a way to kick off the summer season. With over a dozen farms and agricultural organizations participating in the PRMS, visitors were able to get a variety of offerings.
You could buy fresh made focaccia bread from Cherie Wehausen at Rising Star.
Lorna's Kitchen offered fresh sourdough and perennial seedlings.
You could buy your dill pickles and home-made mustard from Armstrong Acres.
Friendly faces were free from all vendors. The Market Square has been doing well for three years, now.
After braving the chilly weather, what could be better than warming yourself up with some hot BBQ at the grand opening of JR's Number 19. The pulled pork was delicious and very reasonably priced.
What a way to start the summer!
