Farmers on a mission

The Farmers Market welcomes new farmers this Saturday: the Garlic Boyz – Scott Bartkowiak and Dan Dimoski.

The two actually have day jobs as engineers. But they’ve discovered they both shared another goal: “to spend more time outdoors, work with our hands, create something tangible,” says Scott.

“We wanted to grow something.”

So they did their homework and decided the best crop would be … garlic.
