The first weekend of May always brings out a crowd, and when it coincides with the opening of the Nelson Farmers’ Market, it’s an even bigger crowd. The 2009 season of the market officially got underway this past Saturday. The market is held each Saturday until October.

Vendors did a very brisk business on opening day.
