You'll always find a spot to sit with a cup of coffee and a snack from our vendors. Admission to the market is FREE. For the farmers, there is no fee to participate, but they donate 10% of what they earn at the market (after a threshold amount) via CCLP to the Harvest of Hope Fund which, for almost 20 years, has been giving monetary gifts of up to $1,000 to farmers in crisis due to illness or unexpected expenses. It's a WIN-WIN for the farm producers and farmers in crisis, a WIN for the host congregations who further their mission and bring people in from the community through the "side door"...and a WIN for consumers who can continue to purchase farm-fresh items and cultivate relationships with local farmers beyond the summer farmers market season.
