It's hard to believe that our storied heritage dates back to 1752. The Easton Farmers' Market has endured world wars, depressions, recessions and pandemics. And thanks to you, we continue to grow - this year launching the new West Ward Market, on Wednesdays. Join us tomorrow as we celebrate our 270th birthday with cake, song, proclamations and more!
Easton Mayor Sal Panto and the Bachmann Players will lead the singing of “Happy Birthday” at 10 a.m., followed by free birthday cake from Tomblers Bakery and Sweet Girlz (while supplies last) as well as a special canine cake for dogs baked by Bella’s Bistro. Additional speakers joining us for the festivities include State Representative Bob Freeman, Northampton County Executive Lamont McClure, Lou Puentes (President of LVH-Hecktown Oaks) and Fred Sisco from IBEW Local 102.
Enjoy a display of historic market photos and enter our Birthday Prize Drawing (located at the EFM Merch Tent) for a chance to win $70 in market tokens. Kids’ activities at the Nurture Nature Center and Sigal Museum tents, magic and balloon art from Balloons the Clown -- and live music will round out the festivities.

Primordia Mushroom Farm - It's Electric!
|
At Primordia, we have some super exciting news to share: starting this week all of our wholesale deliveries, and 3 of our retail markets will be delivered via an ELECTRIC car that was charged on our solar array (Easton is one of those markets)!
About a month ago, our main delivery vehicle got smashed up on the Turnpike (all people were 100% fine). After a year of electric car ownership we decided that the only right move would be to add another Electric car to our fleet. Now we are able to fulfill both family and business needs- all powered with our solar array.
We are so very excited. We have been working toward this goal since 2008 when we first laid out our house with a south facing roof. We hope you are as excited as us :) we have fitted out our former family vehicle (a Nissan Leaf) to serve as delivery and Market vehicle. We call her Volterene the Electron Queen.
