Delhi Farmers' Market, Year-Round!
The Delhi Farmers’ Market was a huge success this summer! With Courthouse Square filled with local vendors every Wednesday, rain or shine, the patrons of the market were supplied with their weekly groceries. Local farmers were selling fresh produce, meat and eggs, and on top of that, there were amazing vendors selling jam and preserves, hot sauce, herbal remedies, hand-carved wooden items, jewelry, cheese, flowers, baked goods, and much more.
This past Wednesday at the farmers’ market, the vendors celebrated the success of summer with a pot luck lunch and a lovely group photo! The market will continue outdoors until October 30th. On November 6th, the market will move indoors at the Delhi American Legion at 41 Page Avenue.
