Hope to hear from you...

Our market season is over for this year and we're already looking forward to the possibility of a one day holiday market and then the market season of 2012. Please stop by periodically to see what's been arranged. We'll post periodically to keep you updated.

If you gave us your email address you'll receive updates directly. If you gave us your email before the last day of the market and never received an email please send it to us here. There were about 7 or 8 addresses that were problematic and those emails were returned to us for a variety of reasons.

Once again, thank you for your interest and continued patronage through the season.

Last Market 9/25...

Sadly, 9/25 will be our last Sunday farmers market. Please stop by to say goodbye to your favorite vendors and pick up whatever you've grown to think of as favorite items to keep on hand. Most of our vendors will be there.

If you haven't stopped at the market table by the entrance to give us your email address, please do for future news of the market. If you have signed up and have not gotten either of the two emails we've sent, stop to give us the address again. There were a handful of addresses that were undeliverable.

Due to the number of requests we're working on getting orders from Sapore for pickup. We will be notifying those on our email list how this will be implemented so help us to stay in touch.

Thank you for your support and we look forward to seeing you next year.

Week of 9/18...

This week you may want to start thinking of stocking up on items for the winter, just like the squirrels digging up your yard. You can also order items to pick up next week so that you're sure you will have them. That way your freezer or pantry will have little reminders of the summer market, weather and tastes to give you a smile through the winter.

If you haven't given us your email address, please stop at the market table as you enter and let us know. That's the only way to be sure you'll be notified of future news on the market's future. If you gave us your e-mail and didn't receive a message last week, please stop by the table to rectify the matter.

See you on Sunday, September 18.

No Market 9/11...

Just a reminder, there will be no farmers market this Sunday, September 11.

There will be a charity picnic/barbecue, rain or shine, at the Knights of Columbus that is open to the public on Sunday, Sept. 11. Planned games & events will be held. Half of the proceeds will go to charities that benefit our troops in Iraq and Afghanistan and the other half will go to local charities. For more information regarding the menu, events and purchase of tickets, please call 201-664-0422 or visit www.kofc5427.org and click on "Announcements".

Our vendors will return with their wares on Sept. 18. We look forward to seeing all our loyal customers then.

We're baaack...

Hurricane Irene is gone though not forgotten. After a beautiful week we're looking forward to welcoming you back to the Market this Sunday. In addition to our weekly vendors this is the week that Whole Cookie, Jams by Kim, Krakus and grounded.coffee will join us.

Visit and load up on all the fresh baked goods, produce, and specialty items that you've become accustomed to over the summer. Grab your favorite coffee, tea or soda and enjoy a chat with your vendors and neighbors for a perfect way to spend a Sunday morning.

If you gave us your email address at the last market and did not receive an email alert, please stop at our table. Those who haven't given their emails, please do so for future information on the Market.

Market Closed 8/28 Due To Severe Weather

In the interest of safety of our vendors and customers, we have decided to cancel the market this week. We urge everyone to take appropriate precautions.You can find hurricane preparedness tips here and here.
