ROCKFORD — Edgebrook Shopping Center is starting an indoor farmers market, and it’s set to debut this week.
The indoor market will take place next to Ackerman’s Shoes in the shopping center from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. every Wednesday, except Nov. 23, through December 7.
Funding for the indoor market came from the Compeer Financial Farmers Market Grant, which allowed for the Edgebrook farmers market to extend into the cooler weather.

Vendors will offer various things to buy, including plants, baked goods, produce and more.
