Time to Order Fresh Local Farm Products!
Manchester Locally Grown market
We always have a few new farmers, waiting their turn to join our market and offer their wonderful products to all our customers. In order to add more farmers, we feel it would be best to grow our customer base a bit. We want to be able to offer you and your friends some new local farm products.
The farmers and market managers would really appreciate your efforts to help spread the word about our fantastic market. What a great local resource for fresh, local farm products. Please pick up a few business cards to hand out to your friends, neighbors, and co-workers. Advertising is very expensive, and we want to use our slim market funds in a responsible manner.

Weaver Farms has been working on a line of completely grass-fed beef, and they are now ready to add to the market. No one on the farm has had time to add them this week, but we hope to do so on Sunday. Please look for these new products Sunday evening or Monday, or by next week at the latest. Thanks for understanding how busy a farm is!

Garlic scapes are back! They are a once-and-done crop, so they’ll only be here for maybe 2 weeks, so get them now! I sell these cut about 8” long for roasting – we drizzle them with balsamic vinegar and olive oil, and a sprinkle of salt, and roast (or just sauté) until tender and sweet, they’re amazing! We prefer this to asparagus!
