Glens Falls Farmers’ Market Returns to Aviation Mall November 7, Sets Goal for Biggest Winter Market Yet
Following its 50th-anniversary summer, the Market invites new vendors and past applicants to help build its next winter season.

GLENS FALLS, N.Y. — The Glens Falls Farmers’ Market will return to Aviation Mall in Queensbury for its 2026–2027 winter season, beginning Saturday, November 7. Operated by the Glens Falls Farmers’ Market Association, the winter market will take place every Saturday through April 24, 2027, inside the mall’s heated food court concourse.

The Association’s goal is to make this its biggest winter market yet, bringing together a broad selection of local farmers, food producers, bakers, and artisans while welcoming more businesses into its longstanding Saturday tradition.

The Market’s current downtown season continues through Saturday, October 31, at the Market & Event Center, 57 South Street, with shopping from 8 a.m. to noon. The following Saturday, November 7, the Market’s year-round schedule continues at Aviation Mall.

The announcement follows a summer celebrating the Glens Falls Farmers’ Market’s 50th anniversary. Since 1976, the Market has connected local producers with generations of customers. Its return to Aviation Mall carries that tradition into another season, keeping local food and locally made products part of the community’s weekly routine.

An Invitation to Join the Market
As the Association works toward its largest winter season, there has never been a better time for interested businesses to pursue membership. Local growers, food producers, bakers, and artisans are encouraged to apply now and take the first step toward securing their place in the upcoming season.

Businesses that have applied in the past are especially encouraged to reapply. A previous application that did not lead to a space at the Market should not discourage a business from trying again. The Association welcomes renewed interest from past applicants and wants to hear from producers who have been waiting for an opportunity to participate.

Interested businesses should contact glensfallsfarmersmarket@gmail.com for membership and winter vendor application information. Membership and market participation are subject to Association review and approval.

A Familiar Winter Destination
Winter shoppers can look forward to seasonal farm products, baked goods, maple products, specialty foods, and handcrafted items, with selections changing throughout the season. From ingredients for everyday meals to holiday foods and gifts, the Market offers opportunities to buy directly from the people who grow, prepare, and make what they sell.

Aviation Mall has hosted the Market during previous winter seasons and provides a familiar setting with heated indoor shopping, convenient parking, and on-site restrooms. The food court concourse will bring vendors and customers together in a comfortable location throughout the colder months.

Additional winter-season details, vendor information, and opening-day announcements will be shared through the Glens Falls Farmers’ Market’s website, email newsletter, and social media channels.

Customers are encouraged to enjoy the remaining fall markets downtown through October 31 and join the Market at Aviation Mall beginning November 7.
