The Roslindale Village Farmers Market poster shown in the article has lots of admirers and was created by Brad Harris, a Roslindale resident. The full size, frameable art poster is for sale by Roslindale Village Main Street for $25. It can be purchased at the farmers market and proceeds benefit Roslindale Village Main Street, Roslindale’s economic revitalization organization for the business district. It’a quite nice and worth all of the $25 you will pay for it. Stop by the Main Street tent every Sat throughout the Summer at the farmers market to learn more, buy one or to see how you can get involved.
