Harrisville is proud to announce a new local event—their very own Farmers Market! The Market will take place Thursday evenings at Harrisville City Park (1350 North Highway 89) from 5:30-8:30 p.m. starting July 16th and running through September 3rd. There will be local vendors of food, crafts, art and more. Participation is encouraged by becoming a vendor and registering through their website. If you are interested in providing musical entertainment, you may also apply at the City offices. Entertainment will not be charged a fee for participation as a vendor, and will be on a volunteer basis. Harrisville City Farmers Market is also looking for volunteers to help staff the event on Thursday evenings. All volunteers are appreciated and will be contacted as needed. There is a need for those with experience to staff a First-Aid booth each week and will also be contacted as needed. For more information contact us at HarrisvilleHarvest@gmail.com.

HERITAGE DAYS EVENTS are starting June 27, 2015, with a parade, kickball tournament, Bingo, Disk Golf Tournament Kids, Harrisville Home Grown Talent Show, a dance, and, of course, fireworks.

The open burn season for Weber County is March 30-May 30 during the spring months and there will also be a possible burn season in the fall during the time of September 15-October 30.  Just like previous years, you will need to obtain a burn permit prior to igniting a burn.
