History
The Swarthmore Farmers Market began in 2006 in order to bring local food and produce to Swarthmore and the surrounding communities and to actively support local farmers and food artisans, and has been operating without fail since that time. Our mission has not changed, but the market underwent a significant facelift this year, as we expanded the number and type of vendors and added live music, arts and crafts for sale, childrens activities, and food trucks.
