SANFORD — Farm fresh eggs, just-picked salad greens, veggie starts for the garden and a whole lot more are on tap for Saturday, when Sanford Farmers’ Market begins its ninth season.

Vendors will set up in Central Park, in downtown Sanford, for the 8 a.m. opening and the market runs until noon. As well, the market will be open 3 to 6 p.m. on Wednesdays.

“We have over a dozen vendors selling seasonal farm fresh fruits and vegetables, salad mix, greens, annual and perennial plants, veggie starts, dairy, eggs, meats, goat/sheep cheeses, baked goods, jams, jellies, maple syrup, handmade crafts and so much more,” said Jack McAdam, who has managed the market for the last several years.

He encouraged folks to stop by and meet the farmers.

The market welcomes credit/debit cards, SNAP/EBT, WIC checks and cash. Shoppers using their EBT/SNAP card receive bonus Maine Harvest Bucks when they shop at the farmers’ market. Maine Harvest Bucks can be redeemed for fruits and vegetables.
