Who We Are What We Think

We’re all about eating local.

We love what this region has to offer! Here, our changes in season bring us new tastes, textures, and flavors. Sometimes there are new foods available to us every day. We want you to enjoy every taste this area offers, and we believe you should have access to our abundance seven days a week.

Eating food from our local farms helps the environment, supports our local economy, and feeds our love for sharing meals made with great ingredients.

Stop in and celebrate with us! Get inspired by what’s fresh from the fields and enjoy what’s good again.

Summertime Market was created over cocktails while sharing stories about our favorite fruit stands. We reminisced about the trips we took as kids to the local farm markets and orchards. We talked about the best places for farm fresh eggs and handcrafted cheese. We grew hungry swapping tales of fresh produce and great recipes.

At The Summertime Market, we believe in building relationships with our food. We love our community. What’s old may be new again: we promote only foods that your great-grandma would approve; we only sell produce from farmers we know and trust; none of these farmers are more than 30 miles away from our stand.

We can’t wait to share this region’s abundance with you!!

We can make a difference!

"Live each season as it passes; breathe the air, drink the drink, taste the fruit, and resign yourself to the influences of each."

-Henry David Thoreau
