Lyons Falls ALIVE Farmers’ & Crafters’ Market
Celebrates National Farmers Week August 8, 11—4pm
 After enduring a period of political
rhetoric and increasing divisiveness, our community is eager to find common
ground and reconnect. Recognizing the potential of farmers’ markets to
foster unity, we are delighted to announce the upcoming Farmers’ Market
Week, which will be celebrated from August 6-12. This year’s theme, “Farmers’
Markets Bring People Together”, emphasizes the vital role markets play
in promoting community connections and bridging divides.
Farmers’ markets
have always held a special place in our hearts as vibrant gathering spaces
where individuals, families, and communities unite to celebrate the
abundance of fresh, locally grown produce and handmade goods. These
bustling hubs nourish not only our bodies but also enrich our social
fabric, acting as catalysts for cultivating relationships and promoting
healthy lifestyles within our communities. The theme for this year’s
Farmers’ Market Week highlights the invaluable contributions of farmers’
markets in building bridges and fostering a sense of togetherness.
Throughout
Farmers’ Market Week, we encourage residents and visitors alike to explore
the diverse array of vendors, activities, and flavors available at our
local farmers’ markets. From farm-fresh fruits and vegetables to artisanal
cheeses, baked goods, and handcrafted items, these markets offer an
incredible variety of products that reflect the unique character of our
region.
By directly
supporting local farmers, artisans, and producers, consumers can experience
the unmatched quality, flavor, and freshness that come with buying from
local farms and play an active role in nurturing a sustainable and
resilient local food system while forging connections with the people who
grow and produce their food.
Farmers’ Market
Week serves as a testament to unwavering commitment to support our local
farmers, artisans, and small businesses.
Join us at the
Lyons Falls ALIVE Farmers’ & Crafters’ Market as we celebrate Farmers’
Market Week this August 6—12. We’ll be featuring games & activities for
kids, numerous door prizes, free ice cream sundaes donated by Stewarts
Shops, dancing by “For His Glory”, walking story book by Lyons Falls
Library, and at 12 Noon ribbon cutting for Lyonesse signage, and our usual
lunches sold by our Fire Department, as our special tribute to Farmers’
Market Week. Join us Tuesday, August 8, 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the Lyons
Falls ALIVE Farmers’ & Crafters’ Market located at 6904 Laura St, the
Lyons Falls Riverside Park. We are looking forward to celebrating with you.
