Looking to make plans for the weekend?

Share this post with family and friends to visit the city of Tangent on a big weekend! We have the Tangent Farmers Market and the Tangent Together Community-Wide Garage Sale, which is a great reason to cruise around the city on a sunny day!

Cool off with a nice sandwich at Kim's Kafe, or a cold drink at the Dixie Creek Saloon. Also, Baxter’s Brew Coffee will have a selection of hot and cool drinks at the farmers' market.

Plus, many other businesses around town to visit and look around for the Tangent "Endless Stories" stickers at select businesses, garage sales, and farmer market vendors, back for a limited time!
