Celebrate the 2024 National Farmers Market Week with GardenShare and the St. Lawrence County Farmers Markets week from Aug. 4-10.
The theme of this year’s celebration is “Farmers Markets Are Third Place Makers,” meaning local markets create spaces beyond home and work for community building, cultural exchange, healthy living, and economic growth. Local markets enhance the quality of life for everyone in our community.
As part of the festivities the farmers markets in Canton, Potsdam, and Gouverneur will feature performances from the Farmers Market Music Series and the GardenShare market management tent will feature an array of fun activities for kids.
2024 marks the 50th anniversary of the Canton Farmers Market and in honor of the occasion the market will feature a screen printing tent run by the St. Lawrence County Arts Council on Friday, Aug. 9 from 9 a.m.-2 p.m.
SLC Arts will have t-shirts and tote bags for sale but attendees are invited to bring articles of clothing to be screen printed as well.
GardenShare will also hold a Farmers Market Photo Contest for the duration of August.
Attendees at any of our county’s farmers markets are encouraged to submit photos of your local market, recent or from the past.
A public vote will be held to find the community’s favorite photo and the winning submitter will receive a prize. Follow GardenShare on Facebook to get the submission link when the contest goes live at the beginning of August.
