Welcome to the 2013 season of the Newark Valley Farmers Market!
This season we changed the hours to accommodate our church going customers that wanted to join us but couldn't because of the hours. This year the market will run Sundays from May 19th- Oct 28th from 12- 4pm.
We have a lot of new vendors interested in participating in the market this year as well as returning vendors from last season. As the next few weeks go by I will be doing posts about each individual farm. The who, what, where, when and how so that you can get a little background information on our vendors before the season begins.
We also saw how well the events that we had at the market went over. You all showed us that having the events gave just that little extra for the family to come out and have a good time.
With that being said we are working hard and have created some events that we hope you will enjoy this season. Plan ahead and mark your calendars!
