And so another Elyria Farmers Market end of the season for Invest Elyria! We want to say thank you to all our vendors that came out this year, the sponsors for their generous contributions, our volunteers that supported our efforts, the Elyria Parks and Recreation department for their participation and the City of Elyria for their support! 
A special thank you to all our customers that came out and supported these small businesses that strive to survive and our few new start-up businesses. Without you, none of this would be possible!

"​What a great day we had at the Elyria Farmers Market! I want to personally thank all of the Invest Elyria volunteers Jacque Mancuso Bobbie Sears Sally Whitfield Tim Bryan Robert Rios Tirado Jr., Mayor Whitfield, Evan and Mike from the city Parks Department, Clifton Oliver Jeff Baxter Marcio Tolentino Diane Simmons Bradley Michael Armstrong Debbie Williams and a few guys that I didn't catch their names who just wanted to help get everything set up and manned throughout the day for the kids to have fun and eat. All of you really brought today together and it was great seeing the kids having fun! The bike giveaway was a success from the city and the Lorain County Public Health passed out helmets and bike locks for 100 people! The kids really enjoyed Snickers juggling & balloons, LifeCare Ambulance's Andy the Ambulance, Our F.A.M.I.L.Y. Funology Lab, Constellation School, and Face Painting.
We thank those that donated/sponsored items for the kids- Fawn's Party Rentals, Buckeye Health, McDonalds, and Our F.A.M.I.L.Y. We also thank all our vendors who came out today and our customers for making their day successful! All in all, this is what community is about and it was great to witness how we did come together."
