A full day of festivities for the entire family is planned for Friday, August 3, at the Caldwell Farmers’ Market.

Here’s the fun-filled schedule:
12-6 Hog Wild Day!
Try your hand at a game of Corn Hole and sample some of Hog Wild’s delicious pulled pork and pulled chicken. Today only at the market, this popular local restaurant will also offer beef brisket, full racks of ribs, homemade barbecue sauces, corn bread, baked goods and other special treats. For some relief from the heat, cool off with glass of freshly brewed and iced hibiscus, sweet, or un-sweet tea.
1:30 Cooking Demonstration by Hog Wild Barbeque
Dave Daniolowicz of Hog Wild BBQ will demonstrate his grilling techniques and answer all of your barbecue questions. You won’t want to miss this special event!

The restaurant is located at 405 Bloomfield Avenue in Caldwell.

Children of all ages and abilities are welcome.
