Local Foods Mohawk Valley Farmers’ Market

June 3, 2023 @ 6:00 am - 11:55 pm

Where you spend your money matters, and there are environmental, economic, and health benefits to buying your goods locally.

This is never more true than in the case of local food, which benefits the environment by reducing the amount of resources expended from farm to fork and requires less packaging and refrigeration. Local food benefits our economy by increasing our food security, reinvesting in local resources, and improving the transparency in our food system. Local food benefits our health by minimizing nutrient loss between harvest and consumption and may be less likely to be contaminated by chemical and biological pollutants.

The Local Foods Mohawk Valley Farmers’ Market has a variety of producers offering a wide selection of produce.

Check out the LFMV website for all the details!

HOW THE ONLINE FARMER’S MARKET WORKS:

  • Register for a customer account
  • Shop from our categories or your favorite vendors – the online store will be open from 6:00 a.m. Wednesday to 11:55 p.m. Sunday
  • Pay for your order via the online cart
  • Pick up your order via curbside delivery the following Tuesday between 5:00 p.m. – 6:30 p.m. at St. Mary’s Preschool (5 Prospect Street)

Please read a slightly more detailed version of how the market works on our Customer Info page after you register your account.

LFMV’s goals can be broken into micro and macro missions:

Micro mission

To help connect and conveniently distribute the goods of local farmers, craftspeople, and artisan producers to local customers as a means of cultivating a robust local economy— one that emphasizes the importance of community resilience and transparency in the face of macro events.

Macro mission

To participate and to collaborate in the larger movement of re-localizing economies in order to mitigate the effects of climate change and modern socio-cultural alienation, and by doing so, to become less reliant on fossil fuels, to reduce waste created by unsold goods, and to keep money circulating in our community.
