Winter Farmers’ Market

Just because the snow is falling and the ground is frozen solid doesn’t mean there isn’t fresh food at the farmers’ markets. While you won’t find local basil or tomatoes at a Monadnock Region winter farmers’ market, you will find lots of ingredients to make what you crave most this time of year – soups and stews. We’re talking potatoes, garlic, onions, turnips, rutabagas, celery root and carrots. Many farmers markets also sell meat, eggs and milk – and some sell wool products such as yarn and felt for winter crafting.

So visit a local winter farmers’ market during your winter stay in the Monadnock Region. You’ll go home with fresh ingredients for the comfort food you need this time of year.
