🎄 Christmas Farmers Market 🎄

We have rescheduled.

You are invited to attend a Christmas Farmers Market on Sunday, December 21st from 12:00 PM to 3:00 PM @ the Harrisville Women’s Club.

This special holiday market will feature local farmers and artisans offering farm-fresh meats and eggs, baked goods, holiday treats, and handcrafted gifts. It is an excellent opportunity to support local producers while finding quality items for your Christmas table and thoughtful gifts for the season.

We look forward to welcoming the community for an afternoon of holiday shopping and local food.

🎄 Support local this Christmas season. 🎄
