Opening Day

The Charlestown Farmers' Market started its fourth season at the Cross Mills' Public Library this morning at 9am. Dressed in full rain gear, we had a good amount of market patrons visit and enjoy great local produce, seafood, meats, sorbets, coffee, and pastries. The pitter-patter of rain drops on the tents, along with the great music, made for a pleasant morning. 

(Our rainy opening day: filled with music, laughter, and great local foods!)

The moment the cinnamon buns and scones arrived, everyone lined up at Isis's booth for breakfast and Mike's coffee from Mills' Creek. With fathers' day around the corner, many people were picking up fresh oysters and littlenecks from Ninigret Oyster and grilling meats from Browning Homestead. One market patron even got "drive-up delivery" from Burnside Acres for plants! The great surprise today was the newest addition of gelato and sorbet from One Love Farms. Some delicious flavors include: Banana Caramel (tastes just like Bananas Foster) to Chocolate Hazelnut to Mixed Berry. We're so happy that the summer farmers' market season has arrived!!


Next week we will have our full line-up of vendors including fresh honey from South County Honey and meats from Stoney Hill to name a few. We hope to see you at the market on Friday!
