Farmers markets have become an important part of how Elmira residents connect with local food. Shopping at a farmers market means buying directly from the people who grew or made what you are purchasing — a transparency that conventional grocery stores simply cannot offer.

What you find at any given market depends heavily on the season. Early spring brings greens, herbs, and cool-weather crops. Summer is peak season for tomatoes, corn, peppers, and stone fruits. By fall, markets fill with storage crops, preserves, and late-season harvests.
