A sign of summertime fun in Pentwater

By Ron Beeber, Contributing Writer

PENTWATER — Just about any day, there is at least one Pentwater Artisan Learning Center member who is working on some sort of community-purpose volunteer project. It’s what makes the PALC a community gem.

Shown here is Jim Pikaart, as he overhauls a pair of Pentwater Farmers Market signs for the sponsoring Pentwater Chamber of Commerce.    

“I built these signs over 10 years ago,” said the community-minded Pikaart, “and they were beginning to get pretty scruffy from standing outside the past five summers.”

The much-anticipated farmers market is set to kick off Monday, June 3. The beloved community event on Pentwater’s Village Green will be open from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. every Monday and Thursday through the 2024 season.
