LAST Rockport Farmers' Market of the 2013 Season is Tomorrow!

Well, it's been a great three months for the first season of the new Rockport Farmers' Market, but like all good things, it is coming to an end. For this year at least. Tomorrow, September 7th, is the final summer Farmers' Market for this year.

So be sure to stop by to load up on your delicious market goods! Fresh, organic produce, cheese, savory jams, pickles, baked goods, fresh pasta, fresh pesto, focaccia, honey, eggs, grass-fed beef, maple syrup, Twin Lights soda and much, much more...

But never fear: you can still get fresh, local food at the wonderful Cape Ann Farmers' Market, which is still going strong on Thursdays from 3:30 to 6:30 in Gloucester. And if you miss some of your favorite Rockport Farmers' Market vendors, you will see them again very soon at Rockport's Harvestfest, taking place on Saturday, October 19th.

Start Your Labor Day Weekend at the Rockport Farmers Market!

Tomorrow is shaping up to be one of the most exciting Farmers' Markets yet as we kick off the three-day weekend with delicious fresh food.

The amazing natural rind cheese is back at the Market this week, coming to us from a family farm in Vermont. The beautiful, organic produce from First Light Farm will be at the Market as well, along with a host of other delicious goods. Alexander, who makes Ma's Tomato Marmalade, has a fresh batch all jarred up and ready to sell, with fresh organic tomatoes that came off the vine just this week... AND we have music coming your way, with the sounds of Chris "Squantch" Sears and band, coming to the Market around 11 a.m...
