Update for Saturday Saturday May 26th- Memorial Day Weekend

I am traveling today and so had limited opportunity to check with the farmers. But I did provide as much information as I could below. I have heard from the farmers that the Saturday before Memorial Day is one of the busiest days of the year. So please stop by and support the farmers.
