The next Winter Farmers’ Market on March 14th will be our Beer & Bread Day market at the Wentworth Greenhouses in Rollinsford, NH. The market runs from 10-2 and will be our last winter market at that location this season! (Don’t worry we’ve still got 2 more left at Exeter High School.) Be sure to mark your calendars and invite your friends for a delicious day at market.
At this market we’ll be highlighting some of the delicious grain-based goodness available locally all season long!
