Local Farmers' Market Guide 2020

June 5, 2020

Farmers Market' 2020

It is my absolutely most favorite time of the year – Farmers' Market season! I very rarely hit the supermarket for vegetables, fruit and other delightful farm fresh items during these months. Below are various local farmers markets, what they have to offer (give or take a few items), location and hours. I have included markets for our local communities of Trumbull, Newtown, Monroe, Shelton, and some surrounding towns.

Please support our local farmers and small businesses!
