How totally fun! The East Goshen Farmers Market is OPEN this coming THURSDAY JULY 4th from 3 pm to 7 pm!!!
They will feature BBQ recipe handouts, special surprises, fabulous food and produce and a COOKBOOK SWAP! (Sorry but I am madly excited to go to a cookbook swap!)
The deal with the cookbook swap is bring cookbooks that are gently used but in good enough condition to go to a new home. Bring any food-related books that you’re ready to trade – cookbooks, foodie memoirs ,cooking reference books. Add them to the table. In return, take your pick from books others have brought. Each home chef is welcome to take as many books as they bring is the unwritten rule of cookbook swaps.
Cookbooks are EXPENSIVE and a lot of the cool ones are out of print, so I hope this becomes a regular market feature here.
4th of July is not just about celebrating America’s birthday and our freedoms, it is also a time of family, fun, friendship, and community. So why NOT head out to the East Goshen Farmers’ Market? If you are usually working it is a great way to check it out, if you are feeling like you want someone else to bring that little something something to a BBQ or picnic or cook out, why not either check out the amazing produce or maybe find something already prepared to contribute? Or just come to hang out at a community activity at probably the best municipal parks in multiple counties?
PLEASE NOTE THE MOST UP TO THE MINUTE UPDATES FROM THE EAST GOSHEN FARMERS’ MARKET ARE ALWAYS FOUND ON THEIR FACEBOOK PAGE! LIKE THEM TODAY!
And I have to say a shout out is in order to Heidi, East Goshen’s market manager and her crew of volunteers. They have done an amazing job fixing a market that some might say was deliberately left in a shambles following the purple huff departure of the former market managers. And they are all so pleasant, welcoming, and helpful. They want you to have a good market experience.Buy Fresh, Buy Local Means Sunny Slope Farms at 2 Local Farmers Markets
These farmers don’t bring food to market the way big stores and growers do.
This is the peak time of year for buying fresh and local summer produce. One Lancaster County farm has a unique “community” business model that puts some of the freshest fruit and veggies on West Chester and other area tables every week.
Sunny Slope Farms of Christiana, PA in Lancaster County is a regular vendor at Thursday’s East Goshen Farmer’s Market and the West Chester Artisan Farmers Market on Saturdays.
