Summertime Farmers’ Markets! There’s one happening nearby you almost everyday. Guide made possible by Seacoast Eat Local!

The seacoast area has so many summertime Farmers’ Markets to attend where you’ll find a plethora of fruits, vegetables, eggs, dairy products, flowers, homemade goods and crafts that are grown and produced right here in our backyards from local farms and vendors. It’s fun to take the kids to share the fun of buying fresh + local food for the family to enjoy.

Go see what all the fuss is about. There are summertime markets all week long so you’ll be sure to find one that you can fit in to your day. Maybe try making this part of your family’s traditional activities (hit up the Farmers’ Market, get the kids involved with what to buy and then go home to make a delicious/nutritious meal out of your purchases). Buying local never tasted so good!

Thank you to Seacoast Eat Local for supporting SKC’s 2025 Summer Farmers’ Market Guide!

Seacoast Eat Local operates summer farmers’ markets in four locations in the Seacoast region of New Hampshire: Portsmouth, Exeter, Dover, and Durham. The markets are made up of a variety of different vendors who sell fruit, vegetables, meat, seafood, eggs, honey, maple syrup, baked goods, value-added foods, hot prepared food, crafts, and body care products. All of our vendors make, grow, harvest, catch, or craft 100% of the products they sell at the market. We also have musicians, nonprofits, and other guests to help make the markets fun, community-oriented, and engaging.

Thank you Seacoast Eat Local for hosting these wonderful public markets where everyone is welcome!
