On a recent sunny morning, Lauren Wittber and her 4-year-old daughter ate an early lunch on the patio of Cordelia’s Market in Harbor Town.
It was just one of the many weekly visits they make to the neighborhood market, whether for a quick bite, to pick up groceries or to attend one of the community events staged there.
“We come for lunch all the time. We come for dinner. We come to the kid’s crafts on Saturday. My husband and I come to trivia night,” Wittber said as her daughter enjoyed a Lunchables. “We like that it’s in the neighborhood. We like that it’s walkable. We like that they have a good selection. We like the small community aspects of it.”
