What We Do

Our Mission

To provide a convenient and cohesive environment where our community can purchase the freshest locally grown produce and farmstead products available directly from farmers and producers who represent traditions and skills we value as part of our way of life.

Many years ago, a group of passionate citizens started the Market with the goal of supporting our local farmers while making it easy for our community to eat & shop sustainably. Since our first year, we've transitioned into a 501(c)3 nonprofit and continue to innovate and improve upon our market offerings. Many thanks go to our community partners, volunteers, friends, and sponsors. We couldn't do this without you.

“We want to make local, healthy foods available to our community and support our incredible producers.”

— Sara George, Market Manager
