Ithaca Tuesday Market

Ithaca, New York is centrally located in a very agricultural region.  Therefore, the community has the advantage of maintaining a vibrant Crop Share community and multiple Farmer's Markets.  The Farmer's Market run on Tuesday/Thursday in DeWitt Park by the Ithaca Commons and Saturday/Sunday at the permanent location near Lake Cayuga.

The Tuesday/Thursday Market is extremely handy if you live in a neighborhood near to the Commons.  You can pick up your lunch or some fresh veggies for dinner.  It is a quick way to get farm fresh foods that are locally grown and harvested.  If you are considering moving to the Ithaca area, this is one of the main advantages of living in the Fall Creek neighborhood or downtown in general, the Commons serves as a meeting place in general and contains many of these activities.




In addition to the food and fresh goodies, there are activities such as story telling or small bands that occur for the local children.  In a way, the Farmer's Market is not only a celebration of the Ithaca farming community, but a celebration of the overall community in general.  If you have a chance, you should definitely stop by and support the local vendors, farmers, and community as a whole.  Besides, you'll get something tasty or beautiful out of the deal anyways!
