Leaves are starting to tumble to the ground, the air is cooling and fall is announcing its arrival...
The farmers are bringing beautiful local produce to the Heights Farm Market. Take advantage of the local quality and stop by on Wednesday! The weather is going to be incredible. Extend your labor day weekend and enjoy an evening in the market square on September 8th from 4:00 pm to 7:00 pm. If you've been considering buying local gifts from our local artisans for the holidays, don't delay - there are only TWO more market days left in the 2010 season - can you believe it?!

Time flies when you're having fun!
As I write this blog post, it is hard to believe there are only THREE (3) market days left in the season. Where did the time go? The Heights Farm Market's last official market day of 2010 will be Wednesday, September 15th.
We're already planning for 2011!
The team at the Heights Farm Market is looking at putting together an indoor holiday market - perhaps in November - to showcase winter vegetables and specialty gifting items. Stay tuned to this blog and/or our Facebook page for the details and location as they develop.
One Important Note: The farmers and small business vendors at the Heights Farm Market appreciate you and your business. The time to stop by and visit - your dedication to purchasing local produce and local specialty items - we are here because you are here and we couldn't do it without you - THANK YOU!!

Market Items NOW Available
The following items are now available at the Heights Farm Market:
Sweet Corn
Broccoli
Peppers
Raspberries
Cucumbers
Blueberries
Onions
Lettuce
Cabbage
Green Beans
Beets
Yellow Beans
Arugula
Garlic
are just a few of the fresh, locally grown items for sale. Also available are fresh locally baked pies, breads, pasta, pesto, granola, biscotti, popcorn, coffee infused syrups, pancake mix, handmade caramels and more.
The Heights Farm Market is open every Wednesday from 4:00 pm to 7:00 pm. A little rain may not keep us away, but we will close down when severe weather approaches. Customer and vendor safety is a priority! It has been a stormy start to the season and we hope for blue skies ahead...well, at least on Wednesdays!
As you plan your weekly market visits, feel free to contact our vendors at their vendor links on the side of this blog. Each vendor will be glad to share their market schedules and set aside orders for you in advance of the market. It can be a bummer to have items already sold out when you arrive and the fresh picked produce can go fast...really fast.
See you in a couple of days!
