About the Market

Background

The Danville Farmers' Market has been a staple in the community, providing a venue for local farmers and artisans to sell their products. Open from May through October on Saturdays and on Wednesdays during July and August, it has become a gathering place for residents seeking fresh, high-quality local produce and goods.

Practices

The market emphasizes locally grown and organically grown foods, supporting area farms and promoting sustainable agricultural practices. By offering a variety of products directly from local producers, it fosters a connection between consumers and the source of their food.

The Rest

In addition to fresh produce, the market hosts a 'Chef at the Market' event once a month, where local chefs prepare dishes using market ingredients. Every third Saturday, a Dog Wash is provided by the local Humane Society. The market also participates in SNAP and WIC programs, making fresh, local food accessible to a broader community.
