FARM TO TABLE
Anne Arundel farmers markets offer a range of locally grown and produced goods
By Angelique Gingras
Residents can enjoy produce and
products at farmers’ markets throughout
the county, something the Anne Arundel Economic Development Corp. says
supports small businesses and the economy.
Market vendors can only sell goods
they produce, grow, or harvest and not
items they have purchased and plan to
re-sell, according to the development
corporation, which produces an Arundel Grown Guide. To see the listing, go to
aaedc.org/agriculture/farmers-markets/
agriculture-guide.
From milk and cheese to beef, pork and
fermented food, there is something for
everyone made in the area. Here’s a listing of markets in the county:
