CANANDAIGUA — It seems like only yesterday when the Canandaigua Farmers Market opened for the late spring, summer and early fall seasons.
Actually, it was June! Where does the time go?
The market’s winter season opens from 10 to 11 a.m. Nov. 8, just in time for Thanksgiving.
What vendors will be at the winter Canandaigua Farmers Market?
Many of the vendors are familiar faces from season to season.
A new vendor, The More The Marion, is expected to debut at the winter market, offering a variety of flavors of sourdough loaves, sourdough English muffins, as well as other sourdough treats.
You’ve seen them all summer and they’re back for the winter market’s opening day: Riedman Happy Hives, K&S Bischoping, Carney Agri Farm, Stoney Acres, Kitchen Blessings Baking, Ms. Linzy’s Mac-N-Cheese, Bristol Hills Lavender & Flower Farm, Seneca Vegetables, Hunt Heritage Farm, Schrader Meats, The Woodland Elf, Andy’s Specialty Produce, and Clearview Farm.
More vendors are also expected.
