The wonders of winter farming are in full force - hoop houses, greenhouses and careful pasturing of animals are the broad strokes of the MAGIC that our producers make behind the scenes to bring you winter greens, roots, shrooms and a wide variety of meats...just for starters! Cobblestone is Back in Action beginning Saturday, January 8 with a slightly later start (9:30a) so you can nestle at home a touch longer on these chilly winter mornings!

Read MoreFall is a season for celebrating harvest, and it’s also a time to recognize the Indigenous foods found in our country. This month, we’re sharing facts about Indigenous heritage and food cultures, and the chefs celebrating them. Indigenous Foods – or those that are cultivated in their country of origin – have a history of close ties to seasonality and locality. These values are ones that we, as Market organizers and customers, continue to strive towards in order to support a more sustainable and nutritious food system.

Because of this, the October moon came to be known as the Full Hunter’s Moon. Explore recipes and the deep history of how the sun and moon guided harvesting habits throughout history.
Read MoreWhat’s in season at the farmers market in the fall? Cooler weather ushers in the fullness of fall harvest and our own willingness to turn on a stove again! Often, the number of farmers market goers begins to dwindle this time of year for one reason or another but rest assured, the produce is still plentiful - along with cheeses, meats, fish and baked goods galore! We love the simplicity of autumn's offerings just as much as the endless inspiration the season brings.
