Chester Farmer's Market Set to Open Sunday

The annual Chester Farmer’s Market is set to kick off this Sunday, June 26 in downtown Chester.

The market will be in a new location on Perry Street, which was chosen to accommodate larger crowds. The market will be open each Sunday from June 26 to Oct. 9, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.

In addition to bountiful farm produce, more than 17 vendors will offer fresh breads, other bakery delights, cheeses, wines, honey products, pickled goods, Alpaca woolens, and many more ‘organic’ creations.

The retailers in Chester will also participate. Festivities surrounding the market will include weekly local musicians and choral presentations, free balloons and varied family activities. 

This year the Farmer’s Market is being sponsored by The Rotary Club of Chester-Long Valley as a service to the local community and businesses. 

There is no admission fee.
