• To help protect your home or business from the force of
hurricane winds, board up doors and windows with plywood
or install storm shutters. Keep in mind that winds are stronger
at higher elevations.
• Bring in outdoor objects that could become deadly mis-
siles, such as patio furniture, hanging plants, trash cans, gar-
dening tools and barbecues.
• Before evacuating, cut off your electricity and turn off the
gas.
• When officials recommend evacuation, leave. Do not try
to ride out a hurricane in a high-risk area.
Find out where shelters are located along your route in case
clogged roads prevent you from reaching your destination.

During the month of May, the City’s new Farmers Mar-
ket was a great success, and a variety of vendors and
products made each Saturday morning unique.
According to Kim McAuliffe, Main Street Coordinator,
participation in the Saturday morning event grew each
week, with respect to both vendors and public attend-
ance.
“The first Farmers Market was held on May 7, and it
went really well,” she said. “By 10:30 in the morning, we
had over 300 people, and they just kept coming. The
ten vendors who participated that first weekend had
squash, tomatoes, lettuce, Swiss chard, carrots, salsa,
plants, hanging baskets, homemade goat soap, herbal
tea mixes, yard eggs and chicks.
“The W alker County Master Gardeners Association was
also there to hand out information about their organiza-
tion and growing your own garden.”
The second Farmers Market on May 14 was also widely
attended and included a more diverse range of prod-
ucts.
“At the second Farmers Market, our 12 vendors offered
the same types of produce, as well as peanut brittles,
jams and jellies, and health supplements,” McAuliffe
said. “As time goes on, we anticipate having around
20 regular vendors each weekend, but for now, peo-
ple are still getting established.
“We always have room for one more vendor, and
we’d also encourage any local musicians to set up
and play during the market.”
At every market, grocery bags are available for sale
for $2 as well as Farmers Market collectible aprons
for $15, McAuliffe said.
“The Farmers Market is always a free event for all,”
she said. “We just encourage our participants to do-
nate extra produce to a local food bank.”
The Downtown Farmers Market will continue every
Saturday through September 24 from 8 a.m. - 12 p.m.
on the corner of Avenue M and 12th Street in the
“Jury parking lot” across from City Hall. For more in-
formation, contact McAuliffe at (936) 291-5920.
