We hope each of you had a beautiful + delicious Thanksgiving! We are ever grateful for your continued support through all seasons. Let's stay connected to our community, our farmers and food producers, and strengthen our local economy year-round!
We're trying something new for the Winter Season: We will be open WEEKLY – every Friday 3-5pm all winter long (weather permitting!) You'll never have to wonder "is market this week or next?!"
The only Fridays we plan to be closed: 12/24 + 12/31, giving producers deserve a break for the holidays! There will be a pop-up market on Wed 12/22 (3-5pm) for last minute holiday needs.
Naturally, the lineup shrinks a bit in winter, but you will continue to find local produce (greens, lettuces, storage crops, etc), meats, dairy, mushrooms, breads & baked goods, favorite prepared foods, and more! Vendors will vary week to week as they do now, so this newsletter is your best resource for the weekly lineup.
After enjoying the first flurries today, a reminder that market is "rain–snow–or–shine" unless it's extremely cold or local conditions are unsafe to drive or walk.
We look forward to seeing you again this Friday / 3–5pm in the parking lot of The Creamery!

Rain or Shine!
We're committed to being a rain or shine market! If there are any changes due to extreme conditions, we will provide updates via email and social media. Check Facebook & Instagram if you're uncertain on market day.
Location & Parking
Find us in the parking area of The Creamery of Kennett Square @ 401 Birch St. The Creamery is open starting at 5pm on Fridays.
FREE PARKING is available on the WEST side of 226 East Birch St (across the street from Braeloch Brewing) or at the office adjacent to The Creamery. We encourage you to use the lots versus the street to be respectful to residents on Birch.
Market Shopping Tips
- Preorders continue to be helpful for both producers & customers, so take advantage of that option as available to secure exactly what you need for the week!
- BRING CASH as not all vendors accept cards or have a minimum for card use. (And cash is always appreciated, as the fees for card use add up for small businesses!)
- Masks are not required for vendors or guests, but please wear one as you as you feel most comfortable.
- Well-behaved pups on leash are welcome at market.
- We have a few carts at market entry to use as you shop, just return to that location when done!
