We’re also hosting a spring market day on May 20, 1:00-4:00 pm, where we’ll have our plants available for sale, along with food and artisan items from some farmer and artist friends of ours. We’ll also be hosting a perennial exchange that afternoon. All are welcome!

Sweetwater Friday Update for Saturday March 25th Farmers Market

Published on March 24, 2023 by sweetWaterAdmin Category: What's New at the Market?

Sweetwater Local Foods Market
Saturday, March 25th, 2023
10:00am to 11:00am
Mercy Health Lakes Village
6401 Harvey St. at US31/Pontaluna Rd.
Supporting Small Local Organic Food Producers since 2005!
Sweetwater Pledge to Customers

Friday Update!

There’s still plenty of time to stock up on the lamb, pork, beef & chicken that’s still available for preorders below! Busy Bee Farm has some new items, and there will also be honey & maple syrup for sale. All the vendors attending tomorrow will also have stock available for walk up sales.

As I’m complaining to my 11 year old granddaughter about the bad weather last weekend, she (no eyes rolling) mentioned that she and her girl scout troop were out in it for 3 hours selling Girl Scout Cookies. Kudos to them (and congrats on the 280 boxes of cookies sold!) And also hopeful for no more of that kind of weather. This weekend seems to be a little less crazy but if we do get a blizzard, read the notice below!
