Welcoming back beverages and cottage food vendors

[Missoula, Montana]: Starting this Saturday, Missoula Farmers’ Market will

something yummy,” says Meredith Printz, Manager of the Missoula Farmers’

products to choose from.”

The Market is committed to ensuring the safety of all participants, and
