Final Farmers’ Market of the Winter Season this Saturday at the Stratham Town Hall

Friday, March 6th, 2009

After this market on Saturday, there won’t be another farmers’ market for two months, when the summer markets begin the first Saturday in May in Portsmouth!

Farmers’ and fishermen will be on hand to help you stock up on local meats of all varieties, dairy, eggs, and much more. Several farmers will be bringing greens that have overwintered in the ground in greenhouses. We’ve heard from Heron Pond Farm that they’ll be bringing spinach, chard, salad mix, escarole, possibly other greens, and potatoes. The Yankee Fishermen’s Coop learned to expect greater demand and will be bringing a lot more local shrimp and their fresh, affordable lobsters!

March 7, 10am-2pm at the Stratham Town Hall, 10 Bunker Hill Ave
