Boogie with CCFM! | May 12, 2014 |
Fresh & LocalWith such nice weather this week, we can’t think of a better time to celebrate another annual Bayou Boogaloo! Happening this Friday-Sunday along the banks of the beautiful Bayou St. John, the Boogaloo will be happening just steps away form our Thursday Mid-City market location at 3700 Orleans Ave. We’ll also be playing a part in the fun by sponsoring a Strawberry Shortcake making demo at the Slow Food NOLA Food Demonstration Stage from 7:15-7:45 with Strawberries from Johndale’s Farm and Creole Cream Cheese from Mauthe’s Dairy, two of our Thursday market vendors! There will be plenty of music, food, and fun for all ages so be sure to grab the kids and boogie on down to the Bayou this weekend! |
