4th of July is a Holiday for the Market

The Northwood Farmers Market will not meet on July 4th.  Enjoy your holiday and EAT LOCAL!

Honey!

One of the most sought after items at the market is local honey.  So we were delighted to see a table full from Hunky Dunk farms yesterday!

New produce vendor from Alton Bay

We welcome Precious Gardens from Alton Bay to the market.  When your blogger asked Steve Bell, the owner, if she could take his picture, he asked if I really wanted a picture of a grumpy old man.  He told me that his nickname was "Grumpy."  So here's Grumpy!  He's seemed quite pleasant to me.

Tomorrow is the first day of summer!

Tomorrow is the summer solstice, the longest day and shortest night of the year, and the Farmers Market is into full swing!  Here's what your blogger came home with!

Strawberries from Montminy's; crabapple jelly from Sherri Brown; Thai rolls from Susty's; chocolate cupcakes from Hippie Cakes; really new potatoes, dug today, and maple sugar from The Root Seller. Good eating ahead.

Red Manse Farm is back for the summer season.  We have several locally raised meat sellers from Hunky Dunk Farm and Evandale Farm, Susty's provides the vegan and vegetarian prepared food, Sherri Brown of Northwood has jams and jellies.  Great to see the corner of Rt. 4 and 202/9 bustling with tents and customers.  Come visit!
