East End Farmers' Market
About the Market
Background
The East End Farmers' Market was established with the mission to encourage local production and create a space where local farmers, food producers, and craftspeople can connect with the community. Over time, it has grown to operate at two sites on two different days.
Practices
The market emphasizes local production and community engagement, offering a platform for local farmers and producers to sell their goods directly to residents. This approach fosters a closer connection between producers and consumers, promoting transparency and trust in the food system.
The Rest
Visitors to the market can enjoy prepared food from local eateries, listen to local musicians, participate in free demonstrations and workshops, and learn about community organizations and local businesses. The market operates in Homer on the Green every Wednesday evening from 4:30 to 7:00 PM, from June 9th through October 27th.
