Opening Day, July 7, 2007
Nine-year-old Courtney Gauthier pitches in with her mother Kelly at the family's George Farms of Dartmouth stand at Saturday’s Farmers’ Market in Westport.
Hundreds of shoppers streamed through the market from 8 am until closing time at noon in search of locally grown produce, plants, herbs, and flowers plus arts and crafts.
The market is held at the Westport Grange, 931 Main Road, on Saturday mornings from 8 am till 12 noon in July August and September. An Adamsville resident summed up her experience enthusiastically. “I did the whole weekends grocery shopping in less than ten minutes, saved gas, supported the local community and local agriculture. I got food my kids love. It’s a win-win for everyone and the planet. Everyone will be talking about this around the table tonight.”
