Opening Date for Bel Air Farmers' Market Approaches

Spring is here, and that means it’s time for the Bel Air Farmers’ Market.

The 2015 market will open April 11 and bring fruits, veggies, flowers, meat, milk, soaps, herbs, jellies, nuts, cakes, pet treats and other locally made products to Bel Air.

More than 50 vendors will be on-site in the parking lot of South Bond near Thomas Street for the weekly event, which is a ”producer only” market—the vendors have made the products they are selling.

On opening day, the market will feature giveaways including seedlings and tote bags. Pairings Bistro will provide food fresh to order and an entertainer will be there for children from 9 to 11 a.m.

See the market’s events schedule and product availability chart.

Local farmers started the market 40 years ago to provide the community with direct access to their products.

The 40th annual Bel Air Farmers Market will be open from 7 to 11 a.m. on Saturdays at 2 South Bond Street. The 2015 season runs from April 11 to Dec. 19.
