HALEYVILLE - Haleyville Hometown Summer, kicks off this Saturday, June 14, at the Heart of Haleyville Park downtown with a first-ever farmers market for that location. A variety of events will fill the summer calendar at the park, located on Main Street, through August, noted Park Committee Member and Haleyville City Clerk Christy Harbin.
Farmers Market Day this Saturday will be from 9 a.m. until 3 p.m., with vendors selling all types of produce, canned goods, homemade items and crafts, Harbin explained.
