You can certainly do all of your produce shopping at the market! Round out your shopping with many kinds of cheeses, honey, maple, bread, jam, eggs, many types of meats and so much more.

Pumpkins! This week we welcome a special guest vendor- Wiley James, the youngest farmer at Town Farm will be making a brief appearance to sell his pumpkins, and also handmade potholders! Wiley will arrive when he gets out of school, about 2:30pm.
Wiley will be donating a third of his sales to Caiman House, a field research station in the village of Yupukari, in the Rupununi region of Guyana, where he visited earlier this year. The organization helps support the village public library, wildlife and environmental conservation, and cultural preservation projects.
Not many people have been part of Tuesday Market for as long as Wiley! Check out this classic photo from the early days of the market…
