Art Is All Around At The Ellington Farmers Market

Celebrate Local Art, Music, Farms and Food This Memorial Day Weekend at Market Park

Kick off your Memorial Day weekend with a celebration of creativity, community, and local flavor at the Ellington Farmers Market on Saturday, May 24th from 9 am to noon in Market Park, 72 Maple St. Themed Art is All Around, this special market day will highlight the talents of local artists and artisans, transforming Market Park into a vibrant showcase of handmade beauty and musical delight.

Shoppers can browse an expanded lineup of artists and crafters offering unique goods—from pottery and paintings to handcrafted furniture, and more. It’s the perfect opportunity to find a one-of-a-kind gift or add a special piece to your home while supporting local makers.

As always, the market will be packed with your favorite farm-fresh produce, eggs, baked goods, meats, and specialty foods from trusted farmers and vendors. Thanks to the market’s SNAP matching program, families using SNAP benefits can double their purchasing power—making nutritious, local food more accessible to all.
