Donations for local food pantries will be accepted at the farmers' markets, helping to provide healthy, local food for our neighbors in need. We enourage consumers to consider buying an extra item to donate to the food pantries. Suggestions include staples like potatoes, onions, squash, and baked goods. All products are welcome. At the end of each market, many farmers generously donate goods, bringing together the joint efforts of producers and consumers to share locally grown wholesome foods.
Volunteer!
Volunteers are needed to help unload and carry in products, support the Seacoast Eat Local booth, staff the food donation table, and clean up after the markets! Email info@seacoasteatlocal.org if you'd like to help.
