Fall is here and with the lower temperatures and shorter days comes the time to say goodbye to our outdoor, summer farmers markets.
Be sure to visit your market before it closes for the season and thank your farmer for the delicious Berkshire bounty.
Check out pages 4 & 5 of this year's Guide to Local Food and Farms to find your market.
