Winter (and Spring) Farmers’ Market

It’s Winter Spring Farmers’ Market Season! Please join us!

The Winter Farmer’s Market is held on Saturdays from 9AM to 1PM, November through May.  See below for dates. We plan a full range of products from produce to eggs, beef, pastries and canned goods. You can learn more about what you can find at the Market in our Meet The Vendors series. In addition to a variety of local food, the Winter Farmers’ Market (WFM) will also have live music from local musicians such as Amy Otis-Wilborn’s band, Bantry Bay (traditional, Irish music) and Wayne Brogelman (Native American Flute).
The WFM is an amazing place to reconnect our community, so come out and support local food, meet your neighbors, learn something new and have a great time! Each event will also offer education about a different Sustainable Living Focus.
