This little pig went to market...
So with the increase in goat babies comes more milk, and with more milk comes more cheese making. And of course with more cheese comes markets. Here in central Vermont we are lucky to have several great winter farmer's markets. We sell our cheese through Farmers to You which delivers to the Boston area, Fair Food Farm Store in East Calais, and the St. Johnsbury winter market. More recently we've joined the Waterbury winter farmer market. As a consumer I love a good winter market. They are a great opportunity to potentially find some local produce (yes produce, even in the midst of winter's blanket of snow) and other local products. As a vendor I find them somewhat underwhelming. It seems that come winter many people don't think about shopping at a farmer's market, which is a shame. There are so many great local products available at a winter market so find one in your area and give it try - it's a great way to welcome spring.
