West Chester Growers Market

The growers market has strengthened the community in this small town, increased neighborliness and brought people together. Market vendors and market-goers have come together to help a farmer with hospital bills, to mourn the tragic loss of a young vendor, and contribute goods and funds to a gleaning program. The vendors grow or make what they sell, and we are blessed with a great variety of people and their products: all kinds of produce, humanely-raised meats, orchard fruit, hand-made soaps and cheeses, bread and baked goods, real root beer - the list goes on. Some of the vendors stay right through the cold weather until Thanksgiving time - and we faithful market-goers show up every Saturday morning. From May to November, my family buys almost all food at our market, preserving our local farmers and farmland. We LOVE our market!
