2023 Local Farmers Market list

Shopping at your local Farmers Market is a great way to get delicious fruits and vegetables, fresh from the farm! Frequently, fruits and veggies sold in super markets have to be picked before they’ve fully ripened, sometimes 1-4 weeks before you buy them. Check out our 2023 local farmers market list below.

Eat fresh and delicious!

At a farmers market, you’re getting produce that has had time to fully ripen on the vine (or bush, or tree), when it will taste its very best. Farmers markets feature produce at the peak of season, so you can often find your favorites.

Try something new!

This is also a great way to try something new! Farmers love to share their favorite recipes, and they love to share the best ways to prepare the foods they are selling.

Strengthening community!

Visiting your local farmers market is also a fantastic way to stay engaged and connected to your community. By supporting local businesses and farmers, you are strengthening your community in a fun way!
