The last Farmers Market of the Year is Taking Place Today
The final rendition of the Genesee Country Farmers Market for 2024 is taking place in Batavia today.
From 9 AM until 4 PM, the farmers market will be open with a wide variety of your favorite locally grown fall fruits, vegetables, baked goods, wine and so much more. The farmers market will take place on School Street in the parking lot next to Angotti’s. It’s been a great year for the farmers market, as each week has seen an increase in attendance from years past.
The Genesee Country Farmer’s Market will return next June after a winter break.
Byron-Bergen Boys Soccer Team Returns to Sectional Finals
The Byron-Bergen Boys Soccer Team will look to defend their sectional title as they return to the Class C sectional championship game after defeating Geneseo 2-1.
3-seed Geneseo gave the 2-seed Bees all they could handle, but goals from Colin Rea and Craig DiQuattro were just enough to hold on. The Bees will travel to Honeoye Falls on Saturday at noon to face off against 1-seed East Rochester, a team they have yet to play this season. East Rochester enters the game with a daunting 15-1 record, having not lost a game since their season opener against Livonia.
However, the Bees are a veteran team that has played in and won sectionals before and fully expects to be up to the challenge.
