This year, autumn’s arrival does not mean the end of fresh, locally-grown food from the farmers’ market; the Brighton Winter Farmers’ Market opens November 10. This indoor winter market will bring together many of the market’s popular farmers and vendors to continue to offer the wonderful locally-produced foods that so many area residents have come to value. Check the list of vendors on the right side of this page for those participating in the winter market.
Our region’s farmers have responded to the growing demand for local, sustainably grown foods by significantly expanding their offerings of late season crops. Among the foods they’ll be bringing to market are lettuce, kale, spinach, potatoes, garlic, green and regular onions, winter squash, carrots, cabbage, chard, leeks, kohlrabi, pumpkins, turnips, beets, fresh herbs, apples, and pears. In keeping with the Brighton Farmers’ Market mission of promoting sustainable agriculture, several of the farmers operate certified organic farms or farms that, while not certified, grow their crops using organic methods. In addition, the market will offer chicken, duck, turkey, certified organic beef and pork, eggs, dairy, plus honey, baked goods including biscotti and bread, coffee, jams, chocolates and fudge, fresh pasta and ravioli, herbal products and wreaths.
Come to the market for fresh, delicious, local food; for a fun, lively, family event; and to help support the local farmers who are re-establishing a strong, healthy local food supply that will sustain us into the future.
