Come to the Opening of the Smart Markets Springfield Farmers' Market

Join us this week for the opening of Smart Markets Springfield.

Smart Markets opens the first farmers’ market to serve the Springfield community this Saturday at the American Legion Post 176 at 6520 Amherst Ave. this Saturday morning, 10 a.m. – 2 p.m. Come join the fun and check out all the great local food at our newest market. We will have a wide selection of vendors with each tent packed with tremendous variety: produce including fruit and veggies and dairy including Trickling Springs milk, ice cream and butter and Mennonite-made yogurt and cheese. We will have free-range meats including chicken, beef, pork and veal, and fabulous country eggs. Great Harvest Bread Company will bring its full range of products, and several home bakers will bring creative and delicious treats for the most discerning shoppers — including kids of all ages.
