Farmers' Market

Join us at the market! The Foodlink Farmers' Market will run every Wednesday from June 9 to September 29, 2010.

Foodlink sponsors a local Farmers' Market in an effort to increase access to fresh and affordable produce while promoting local farmers. The market is located in downtown Rochester at Washington Square Park (at the corner of Court Street and S. Clinton Avenue). The market runs each year from June to September on Wednesdays from 11am to 2pm.
