Hello Market Shoppers!

October!  It may feel like summer tomorrow, but fall is really here and the market will be overflowing with fall fruits and vegetables in addition to all of our great cheeses, meats, breads and artisan foods.   

 

Many of our food artisans have special fall items like Pumpkin Pie and Cinnamon Gelato, Pumpkin Hummus and Harvest Moon Chevre.

 

Fall is a great time to plant perennials and shrubs and Sugarbush nursery will join us with their native plants.

 

This is a BIG weekend in Phoenixville with several special events and we are so happy to be part of such a vibrant town!

See you at the Market!
