Lewisburg Farmers Market
Saturdays, 8:30am - 1:00pm between the Post Office and Methodist Church in downtown Lewisburg
The Lewisburg Farmers Market would like to thank everyone who came out in support of the market last Saturday night for our first annual Community Harvest Dinner. The vendors of the market prepared delicious local foods, local musicians (Don Delaney, Bob Adams, Shashanna Schwimmer, and Laurie Evans) entertained the group with wonderful music, and Ross Weisiger taught the Virginia Reel. A good time was had by all. Thank you to everyone who helped make the harvest dinner a great success. If you weren't able to attend the dinner, check out the Lewisburg Farmers Market's facebook page to see what fun was had.
The market is still open for the season. The vendors are there because of the wonderful community in Lewisburg; so stop by this Saturday and stock up for winter!

The Pocahontas County Farmers Market provides fresh food and local artisan work to our community and visitors from May into October. Our goal is to increase access to fresh, locally produced, nourishing and safe foods for all people — from children to seniors. We encourage, support and promote the entrepreneurial efforts of local, independent and small-scale farmers, local growers and local artisans who seek to sell their products/produce directly to local consumers and restaurants. We create an opportunity for people to meet, eat, share stories, recipes and knowledge in a safe place dedicated to the cultivation of local products and talents. Finally we create an atmosphere that serves not only the market but also contributes to a prosperous rural area and promotes a sense of community.
