Crooked River hosts market Saturday
The Crooked River Lighthouse is hosting an outdoor Country Market this Saturday, Sept. 18 from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. at Lighthouse Park, 1975 Hwy 98 West, Carrabelle.
The open-air market, at the foot of the lighthouse, now features fresh herbs

the community will be on hand with gifts and goodies like fresh roasted

items, and exotic starter plants.
Plus there’s Poetry on the Porch from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. during
the market. Poets, aspiring poets and poetry lovers are invited to share their
