New York Mills Farmers Market

Farmers Market opener a sucess!

2009-06-19T21:12:00.000-07:00

Come out to see us at the Farmers' Market! We are located in downtown New York Mills next to the Mills Creamery (coffee shop). Hours are 9am - 1pm every Saturday. Come early for best selection! Last week there were hanging baskets (beautiful flowers!), perennials and vegetables plants, early green onions, radishes, baked goods, jams & jellies, pickles and relishes, nitrate-free pork products and Organic Valley cheese and butter. We watched as the bikes rolled through town for the annual Ronald McDonald Ride. Thanks to everyone who stopped by our first market of the season!

As always, bulk orders for future delivery of vegetables and pork are welcome.

We will be setting up on Wednesdays starting in July - or whenever the veggies are ready!

NYM Tradeshow

Thanks to all of you who visited us at the recent New York Mills trade show.
This painting was given away in a raffle.

It was neat seeing how big a peck and a bushel are. Produce can be pre-ordered from our vendors in these larger quantities for a good price.

Here are a few shots from the trade show recently in New York Mills. Pat and Colleen are shown fielding questions at the Farmers Market booth.
