Title
Special Event Permit Dean’s Greens Saturday Markets
History
Dean’s Greens, operated by Dean Drougas entered in a three-year lease agreement to operate a farm stand at Boley Farm on April 21, 2025 offering a wide variety of plants, produce and seasonal items.
Dean’s Greens has submitted a Special Event permit request to host four Saturday Markets at Boley Farm beginning August 9, 2025. Specific dates have not been set. Markets will be consecutive or every other week. The Market will run from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. each date. Set-up preparations would begin at 8 a.m.
Each date will include 10-15 market vendors, food trucks and other activities. All event logistics will adhere to Village guidelines, be reviewed and approved in advance.
To accommodate future events, the lease agreement between the Village and Dean’s Greens will be updated to authorize Dean’s Greens to host special events at Boley Farm contingent upon submitting a special events permit, meeting all permit requirements, inspections and fees.
