What's at market 7/27/22
Summer is in full swing! That means we’ve got all the produce of the rainbow available for sale at market this week. Don’t forget to stop by on your way home to get the best of the fresh.
Of course, you can also find fresh-baked goods, pasture-raised meats, milk and cheeses, and ready-made meals like empanadas and pizza. Just heat-and-serve, straight from our vendors to you. You can’t get more healthy (or home made) than that! (Don’t worry, we won’t tell).
And don’t forget we have live music, archery demonstrations and a craft for the kiddos, too. The Passaic County Department of Health will also be offering free health checks.
This week we host Maribyrd at the music tent

Food donations for a better tomorrow
Ample Harvest donates fresh produce to our local food pantries. This week they harvested approximately 18 pounds from West Milford community garden plots, including peas, green beans, carrots, beets, chard, kale, lettuce, squash, cucumbers, radicchio and herbs.
In addition to community garden harvests, each week the West Milford Farmers Market collects donations from vendors and shoppers, then purchases additional fresh food to donate. Local residents in need have been sharing cooking lessons using this fresh produce. Ample Harvest thanks you for your support in this important endeavor!
