You might think eating locally in Pennsylvania is not relevant in the winter months? Not so! Cold weather crops plus the use of hoop houses and other methods help to extend the natural growing season. Cold storage vegetables like carrots, beets, turnips, onions, winter squashes, and potatoes also mean that there is plenty of fresh produce to choose from at winter market. Certainly hens continue to lay eggs year-round and the varied assortment of cheeses, meats, and baked goods continue to flow from our vendors. You will be amazed at all you will find.
In addition, a number of crafters and other vendors will offer their special wares this First Friday. The Winter Farmers Market runs from 2 - 5 pm along State Street at the Genesis Alleyway each first and third Friday from 2 - 5 pm.
