As the last leaves fall and the chill of winter begins to embrace us all, the heart of the community remains vibrant and bustling, thanks to the much-anticipated return of the Winter Farmers’ Market. We are moving indoors, offering a warm welcome to all at the Aviation Mall every Saturday from 9 AM to 12 PM.
New Season, New Venue
The Glens Falls Farmers’ Market has always been a staple of local life, providing a space where the community can connect with the hands that feed it. With the winter season upon us, the market is transforming. Its new indoor location at the Aviation Mall ensures that the cold months will in no way hinder the town’s access to fresh, local produce and artisanal goods.
A Bounty of Winter Delights
The Winter Market is not just a place to buy your groceries; it’s an experience. From the moment you step inside, you are greeted by the vibrant colors of root vegetables, the rich greens of winter-hardy leafy crops, and the smell of freshly baked bread. It’s a feast for the senses that defies the grey skies outside.
Support Local, Sustain Community
Shopping at the Winter Market is more than just a weekend errand; it’s a commitment to supporting the local economy. Each purchase helps sustain a farmer through the cold months, keeps a baker’s oven warm, and ensures that the crafters can continue to create. It’s a cycle of support and sustenance that strengthens the community.
What to Expect
As you plan your visit, here’s what you can expect to find:
- Farm-Fresh Produce: Even in winter, our farmers have a plethora of produce, including potatoes, onions, carrots, and more. These staples of comfort food are waiting to be turned into warm winter meals.
- Gourmet Treats: Whether you’re after some artisan cheese to accompany a glass of wine or looking for hand-crafted chocolates, the market is a treasure trove of gourmet delights.
- Handmade Goods: The market also offers a variety of non-food items, such as cutting boards, soaps, and candles—perfect for gifts or a little self-indulgence.
- Community Spirit: Perhaps the most vital offering of the market is the sense of community. It’s a place to meet and chat with friends, both old and new.

Whether you’re a regular or a first-timer, the Glens Falls Winter Farmers’ Market is the perfect destination to fill your basket, your stomach, and your heart.
