For a day trip to the capital, the Concord Farmers Market is a great option. This NH farmers market features a wide range of vendors selling artisanal chocolate, handcrafted soaps, and fresh produce. Visitors can also enjoy live music, children’s activities, and cooking demonstrations.

Laconia, NH

Closer to home, the Laconia Farmers Market is located in downtown Laconia and offers a variety of fresh produce, baked goods, and handmade crafts.

NH Farmers Markets: More than Just “A Thing to Do”

NH farmers markets are more than just places to buy fresh produce and handmade goods. They also serve as hubs of sustainability and community, with many vendors using organic and sustainable farming practices. By supporting NH farmers markets, you’re not only getting delicious, locally-grown food and unique crafts but also supporting local agriculture and reducing the environmental impact of food production.
