About the Market
Background
For 24 years and counting, the market has served the greater Mansfield community with a diverse array of local produce and goods. Known for its heirloom fruits and vegetables, heritage breed pork, and free-range chicken and eggs, it has become a staple in the area. Conveniently located near UConn in Downtown Storrs, it provides easy access with ample free parking and bike racks.
Practices
The market emphasizes local agriculture by offering 'CT Grown' products, including heirloom fruits and vegetables, heritage breed pork, and free-range chicken and eggs. This focus supports local farmers and promotes agricultural diversity.
The Rest
The market operates year-round, with a Winter Market open two Saturdays a month from December through April and a regular market every Saturday from May through Thanksgiving. Visitors can stay informed about special events and available foods through weekly emails and social media updates. The market is held on the front lawn of the Mansfield Town Hall, rain or shine.
