The Saturday market is where you meet the people who grow and make your food. But many of them sell from their own places all week — farm stands, pick-your-own fields, sugarhouses, farm stores. Shelburne has at least a dozen distinct farm retail stops within town lines.
We're starting with a guide to farms and makers in Shelburne — because that's where the market lives — and we'll be adding vendors and farms across the region as we go.
