Your Farmers Market Needs You!

North Union Farmers Market needs your support.
 
We hope you are staying healthy and well-nourished at this very trying time in our country and around the world. As our growers have not stopped growing,  North Union has not stopped for one minute either. We have been working closely with our State and local governments to ensure that we are there for you. We have been working relentlessly to ensure that our farms know your needs so they can make every effort to plant, grow and share their bounty in the middle of COVID-19. Together, our management team and 97+ farms we work with yearly have been setting the standard for health and safety protocols to ensure we can continue to serve our community.
 
More than ever before we need your support of our work at the market - and please consider a gift donation
