DeWitt neighbor Allen Adkins lives just down the street from the future market site at the corner of Jefferson and Scott streets. He said having the market even closer will make it a bigger part of his routine.
“We’re frequent visitors anyway but now it’s even gonna be easier for us,” Adkins said. “It keeps everybody together and a lot of it’s local stuff and local things that people sell.”
Other neighbors say they’re also looking forward to spending more time at the market this season…
