When a light bulb burns out in the parking lot of The Inn at ONU it's not a simple "climb a ladder job." It takes a fork lift and a trip the Ada's second floor, where the birds fly.

Yes, the Farmers Market will return to Ada this summer, but in a new location.
The market will operate from the Railroad Depot parking lot from 3:30 to 6:30 p.m. on Thursdays beginning June 4.
There was a question about its operating this year due to new restrictions, regulations and requirements demanded by the Ohio Department of Agriculture, which now oversees farmers markets.
Those issues have now been resolved thanks to the assistance of ReStore personnel.
