We hope you had fun visiting some wonderful pigs on opening day, brought to us by DJ of Farmer Jon's Produce.
We'll be outdoors at the Bethlehem Middle School through October (before heading indoors) and have many of your favorites back, along with some new offerings. Thank you for your support!
The Delmar Farmers Market features local,organic and natural farm products, baked goods, local and fair trade crafts, and music. All of our vendors come from within 35 miles of the market in Delmar, New York! Conveniently located at the Bethlehem Central Middle School, 332 Kenwood Avenue, Delmar, New York (click here for directions), the market is open 9:00 AM to 1:00 PM on Saturdays. Only 5 minutes from Albany, we are a premier Capital District farmers market.
The Market is featured in a terrific new book: A Guide to Buying Farm Fresh is a resource explaining how to purchase safe, healthy and tastier food in the Capital Region. The book shares the many options available for consumers to buy direct from our local farms and the value that behavior has on our Upstate New York economy. New York State is a major food producer, ranking in the top five in the nation in milk and other food production, and with its 19 million consumers enjoys the unique capacity to make its food system more local and safer.
