Farmer’s Markets
By: Rebeka Frazer-Chiasson, La Ferme Terre Partagee
Farmers markets are the best way to get a real taste, smell and feel of a community. Immerse yourself in the food culture of our region by joining us for breakfast, lunch, or to gather the goods for your camping trip, family reunion, or bbq at home.
As a visitor to the region, your greatest impact on the community is how and where you buy and you can be sure that when you spend your money at the market, farmers, cooks and crafters as well as their families and communities will directly benefit.
Water Street Farmers Market
Join us on Saturday morning for breakfast, fresh food, homemade treats, meals and crafts. Open year round and especially active during the summer where vendors spill out of the building, farmers, cooks and crafters will welcome you and happily talk about their products and where and how it was made.
