News from the Knoff Group

When hearing about a WINTER farmers’ market, you might ask, ‘What the heck grows up here in the winter?!’ Well, not a lot, honestly, BUT there are things other than fresh fruits and veggies to be found at these winter markets. Think jams & jellies, canned or pickled produce, honey, maple syrup (technically not local), coffee & tea, grain, and baked goods of all kinds. You’ll also find eggs (yes, EGGS!), meats, cheeses, and candies. Then of course there are the crafty goods like jewelry, knitted and crocheted items, home decor, and apparel. Bonus: there’s usually live music to enjoy while you’re saying hi to all the friends and neighbors you haven’t seen in a while.
