It's My Favorite Farmers Market Because...

The best of the local area from farm-raised produce, flowers, plant starts, prepared foods, cheese, bakery, beef, chicken, pork, eggs and crafts. You can shop for everything you need for a meal. The vendors are cheerful and helpful and know all about what they are selling. Everything is local and grown or made by real people. It is a strong part of the community. It is simply the perfect mix of goods and people and community. It gives us independence from big agro-business and box stores that are poisoning this country and it's people.

Tips and Tricks

  • Go early for the best new crops, vendors often sell out. Eggs sell out early
  • look for these vendors:
  • CRUST mother and daughter selling sweet and savory galettes and pies in a jar using local ingredients-such as chicken pot pie baked in a mason jar
  • DENTED BOUY- makes pizza to order in a wood-fired oven made from an old bouy
  • CAPE CLEARE SALMON- sustainably harvested and brought to market by bicycle.
  • RED DOG FARM- the best produce from a farm run by an amazing woman.
  • SPRING RAIN FARM- simply the BEST eggs you will ever eat and chickens too.
