Free Cake, Bubbles & 20 Years: Wrightstown Farmers Market Opens May 2

Wrightstown, PA — Free cake, monster bubbles, live music and a 20-year milestone. The Wrightstown Farmers Market is kicking off its 20th season on Saturday, May 2, and Opening Day is packed with reasons to show up early.

The market runs from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. at the Middletown Grange (576 Penns Park Road), with free cake for early visitors (baked by Erin Gresh of Forget Me Not Bakery) and a free nasturtium plant giveaway starting at 9:30 a.m. The market is also celebrating 20 years alongside its parent nonprofit, the Bucks County Foodshed Alliance (BCFA).

Kids can chase giant bubbles, families can settle in under the shade trees, and live music from local favorite The Goose Creek Pioneers will fill the market with fun all morning.

Wrightstown Farmers Market is a producer-only market that brings together about 40 local farmers and producers each week, offering everything from fresh produce and baked goods to meats, cheeses, starter plants, raw honey, pickles, fermented goodies, locally roasted coffee, homemade granola, locally grown whole grains, olive oil, pasture-raised eggs, ready-to-eat selections and so much more.

Returning produce farms include Blooming Glen Farm, Rolling Hills Farm, Hollow House Farms, Primordia Mushroom Farm, Solebury Orchards and pop-ups Roots to River Farm, Solly Farm, and Community Baptist Church Farm. Meat and dairy farmers include Holben Valley Farm, Purely Farm, and Sugar Maple Jerseys. New vendors this season include Antojitos Mexicanos Maritity Tacos, Backyard Buzz, Smell the Curry, Hoffman Bread, Monarch Butterflies of Bucks Co, along with the return of Kismet Bagels and so many more.

“It’s hard to believe we’re celebrating 20 years,” says Market Manager Cheryl Gilmore. “So many families have grown up at this market. It’s become a place where people come not just to shop, but to connect - with farmers, with neighbors, and with each other.”

The market runs every Saturday through November (with the exception of August 15^th) with free parking and shaded seating. Only service animals are permitted.

Whether you’re a regular or it’s your first visit, opening day is a great time to come out and be part of something that’s been growing right alongside the community for 20 years.
