Central Hillside Farmers’ Market, part 1


“Possessive apostrophes are apostrophes (’) used with the letters at the end of a noun to show ownership over or a close connection with another noun. For example, if you were talking about the tail of your cat, you can add a possessive apostrophe and an s as punctuation to show which noun is the owner.”

 

My cat’s tail

 

Therefore, if there was just one farmer in the market, then “Central Hillside Farmer’s Market” would be correct.  However, as there is more than just one farmer at this market, the headline should read, “Central Hillside Farmers’ Market.”
