Storrs Farmers Market

Storrs Farmers Market begins its 18th season on Saturday, May 5.  Open every Saturday from 3:00 - 6:00 pm, the Market is located in the Mansfield Town Hall parking lot on Storrs Road (Route 195).  Located within walking or biking distance of the Mansfield Community Center, UConn WRTD bus stops, and several residential neighborhoods, Storrs Farmers Market is a convenient source for premium "CT Grown" foods.

At Storrs Farmers Market, our focus is food!  Everything at the Market is Connecticut grown and produced.  In fact, the average distance from farm to Market is just 9 miles!  And, no item travels more than twenty miles to reach you.  Compare that to the national average 1,3000 miles that food travels from farm to supermarket.  The food at Storrs Farmers Market is picked when it is perfectly ripe and sold fresh to you.

For more information, including a list of available foods, please visit our website, www.StorrsFarmersMarket.org.
