The 2010 Bethlehem Farmers’ Market, which supports local farms and businesses, will run from noon to 4 p.m. Thursdays at Campus Square.
For the eighth year in a row, the Bethlehem Farmers’ Market will have goods available to Bethlehem residents at Campus Square. The market will run at the intersection of New and Morton Streets on Thursdays, June 17 through September 23, from noon to 4 p.m.
The market is still accepting vendor applications for cheeses, soaps, and prepared foods, but vendors must meet the Buy Fresh Buy Local standards available at campussquare.net.Additionally, the Farmers’ Market has a new manager. Heather Boyette (pictured right), who has experience managing the “Coopermarket” in Bala Cynwyd, has planned some special events and entertainment for patrons during the market hours. Boyette will be at the market each day to help vendors set up and to assist customers.
The market provides a shopping opportunity that differs from what customers typically find at a grocery store. At the Bethlehem Farmers’ Market, customers can sample the goods, develop relationships with the vendors, learn about unique food varieties and cooking tips, and greet their neighbors.
The market supports local farming and businesses in the Lehigh Valley and is part of the Pennsylvania Association for Sustainable Agriculture’s Buy Fresh Buy Local program.
Market information and vendor applications are available at www.campussquare.net.
