The Cabot Farmers’ Market, in conjunction with Cabot City Beautiful, Inc. (CCB), has announced the 2023 Season will begin on Saturday, May 6th. This will be our SIXTEENTH YEAR & it already promises to be an even bigger & better market. With the current economic atmosphere, many people have turned towards backyard gardens. Many people can use this venue to as supplement their income from selling at a market. “A farmers market contributes to the social and economic welfare of a town & helps produce a strong sense of community identity together.” said Shelby Glover, co-market manager. “The farmer’s market stands as a common ground where people can interact with local farmers & fellow residents of the community, as well as a local source of fresh produce.”
“We had fairly successful first & second seasons. Our third & fourth years were simply fantastic! In 2012 & 2013, we nearly doubled our number of vendors! The Cabot Market moved locations in 2014, where we enjoyed even more amazing success! The 2020 season was challenging, to say the least, with the pandemic restrictions. The past two seasons have definitely improved… but THIS YEAR is looking even MORE promising! Shoppers & Vendors are looking forward to a terrific 2023 market this coming season. Many growers, crafters, and artisans, right here in our area, are already lined up to participate. They want to be a part of this great opportunity, in order to showcase & sell their products!” stated Matt Webber, co-market manager. Vendors are welcome to participate, as long as their products are either locally-grown or locally-made.
Just a reminder: The Cabot Farmers’ Market will set up in its “NEW” LOCATION at 101 North Second Street, which is the parking lot of Cabot City Hall/Cabot Police Department. This LOCATION is adjacent to the property, where construction will soon begin on “The Railyard” Community Pavilion. Plans are for the Farmers Market to utilize this wonderful new downtown feature, once construction is completed. This will provide great visibility for the Market. “We are working to integrate many new ideas & promotions into this year’s market.” said Webber. “We want an atmosphere that is friendly & inviting.” Anyone wanting more details can contact the Market at 501-920-2122 or cabotfarmersmarket@gmail.com .
Opening date for the 2023 Market Season will be May 6th. The Market will be open EVERY SATURDAY thru October 7th. Market Hours are 8:00a.m. ‘til 12:00noon.
