Grow your business, support local, and help bring the Farmers Market to life! 🌻🍓🍞

🚨Please read!🚨

The Argos Farmers Market is SO close to kicking off, but we’re still on the hunt for a few more amazing vendors—especially produce and floral! 🌻🍓

We’d really love to start on time, but if we can’t round up a few more vendors, we may have to push opening day back a couple weeks… and honestly, nobody wants that.😅

Keep in mind, there is no fee to become a vendor!😉

So if you’ve been thinking about joining, consider this your sign! Come help us bring the market to life and make this season everything Argos deserves.💛

Tag your favorite local gardener or grower below—or better yet, sign up now! 👏

Our parks just got some extra love! 🌳✨

Argos Parks would like to thank Marshall County Fiber for their generous $750 donation to support our parks and community spaces. This contribution, made possible through MCF’s e-Statement program, reflects their commitment to giving back locally while promoting sustainable practices.

Donations like this help us continue to care for and improve the parks that bring our community together.
