Here in New Hampshire we have plenty of farms and local food producers – and what better way to support these hard working local business owners than by buying their products at a farmers market? There are plenty to choose from in the Granite State, but one in particular seems to always end up at the top of everyone’s lists.

The seasonal Portsmouth Farmers Market is operated by the Seacoast Grower’s Association, a group which has supported farmers and producers in New Hampshire’s seacoast region since 1977.

The Saturday morning market has become a ritual and gathering place for the community, with friends sipping hot drinks as they peruse the produce and catch up.
