Valley City’s Saturday Farmers Market opens for the season Saturday at Hirschberger Park, said Becky Huber, who is managing this year’s market with brother Arlen.
This marks the 33rd year the Saturday market has been operating.
The Hubers are taking over management of the market this season from Sharon Clancy.
Huber has been selling her fresh local vegetables at the market “since day one.”
Helping the Hubers operate the market this year are Margaret Stoltz and Candy and Mike Rasmussen.
“We need all the help we can get,” Huber said.

May is Stroke Awareness Month, and City- County Health District and the Center for Tobacco Prevention and Control Policy (the Center) are using the opportunity to underscore how the connection between cigarette smoke and stroke reinforces the need for comprehensive smoke-free policies.
Stroke is the fourth-leading cause of death in the U.S., and people who smoke cigarettes are twice as likely to have a stroke.
Valley City Public Schools School Board member Sharon Buhr faces re-election this year, and her opponent is Valley City State University assistant professor Richard Ross. Both candidates have strong backgrounds in education and both sat down for interviews with Times-Record reporter David Luessen on Tuesday.
