FARMINGTON – Farmington Farmers’ Market will move to a new location at St. Joseph Center on Saturday, November 6th. The winter market takes place on Saturdays from November to April from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m.

The St. Joseph Center is located on the corner of Quebec and Middle Streets, near the UMF Fitness & Recreation Center. The center is home to the St. Joseph Nutrition Center, a community social service initiative to “fully feed the hungry in Franklin County.” The nutrition center includes a walk-in self-service kitchen that is open 7 days a week from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m., as well as a food service on Tuesdays from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. The orientation of the farmers’ market goes well with this mission. For more information on the St. Joseph Nutrition Center or for volunteers, please contact Stephanie Crowe at 897-2173 ext. 1203
