This weekend in Bethel, OH

Simmons Farms is planning a small, carefully curated Saturday market at the farm, with the farm serving as the anchor booth and limited space for three to six outside vendors each market day. The aim is to create a local, meaningful experience that feels worth the trip. Vendor interest is centered on farmers and growers, bakers, flower and meat vendors, pantry and specialty food producers, and a select group of farm-friendly handmade makers. The market schedule is still being finalized, whether weekly or twice monthly, while Saturdays at the farm will continue with the store open and seasonal highlights available throughout the season. Interested businesses can contact the organizers to receive the vendor form.

Visitors can explore the Chilo Lock 34 River Museum at Chilo Lock 34 Park, housed in the former operations building of Ohio River Lock and Dam 34. Centered on living and working along the Ohio River, the museum offers hands-on exhibits about steamboats, flood history, and daily life on the water. It is open to the public on Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays, and admission is free. Groups of 12 or more may request a privately guided tour or interpretive program by emailing cskiff@clermontcountyohio.gov, with availability limited.
