In addition to providing a place to purchase fresh, organic fruits and vegetables, pasture-raised meats and tasty prepared foods, the markets also offer a thriving community gathering place. At the markets, families, friends and visitors can enjoy local music, good company and educational events which highlight the tremendous work being done by a slew of exceptional farms and food artisans in the region.
