In over 50 communities across the state, what began as a gathering of a few local growers has grown into a community event. From the first crop of tender asparagus in the spring to September’s pumpkin harvest, you can buy it fresh from the grower. As farmers’ markets have grown, so has the selection of goods for sale. Markets typically feature fresh baked goods, specialty foods, arts and crafts, and of course a wide variety of fresh fruits, vegetables, cheese, eggs, meat and maple syrup. Many markets feature live music and activities such as sheep shearing, weaving and spinning.
