National Farmers' Market Week

It’s summer in Connecticut and that means our local farmers are harvesting fresh, delicious produce!

In support of our local farms and in celebration of “National Farmers’ Market Week,” I wanted to share a list of farmers’ markets in our community.

Farms are a vital component of our local economy, and they enrich our culture and deepen our connection to our agricultural roots and the foods we eat. I hope you’ll show them your support by stopping by your local farm or farmers’ marketas often as possible.
