West Shore Farmers Market continues into October

The West Shore Farmers Market is watching the weather, and planning to continue into October on a week to week basis.

The market, which began in 2021 at the corner of Cedar & Eckerson. is now located in Russell Park from 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. on Sundays. Vendors offer produce, baked goods, home decor, clothing and a variety of hand-crafted items.

Original plans had Sunday, September 25 as the last market of the season, but the decision was made to continue into October if weather allows.  Check out the park on Sunday mornings to see if they were able to set up.

Some vendors you can expect to find include Human Farms, Sugarmama’s Bakeshop, Lighthammer Forge, Pain in the Craft, Drip Trip Designs, Rustic Gold, Kowalski and Daughters Farm, Good Shepherd Coffee, and Buffalo Gal Bakes.

Produce vendors are able to accept FMNP (Farmers Market Nutrition Program) and SFMNP (Senior Farmers Market Nutrition Program) coupons. These coupons were distributed earlier this month. The market is also able to accept EBT payment in exchange for tokens which can be used to purchase eligible items from vendors.

Each week children are invited to search for the market mascot, Westin, a crocheted chicken, who finds a different hiding spot at a vendor’s table each week. Children who find Westin can receive a prize each week at the market information stand.
