The Saratoga Farmers’ Market is hoppin’ this Saturday! We’re teaming up with Scene One Cinemas and the Wilton Mall to bring you a bounty of spring activities and delicious food.
Date: Saturday, March 28
Time: 9:30 AM – 1:30 PM
Where: Wilton Mall Food Court
Here’s our plan:
9:30 am: An all-ages Easter egg hunt (limit 5 treat-filled eggs per child)
10 am to 1 pm: A visit from the Easter Bunny!
9:30 am to 1:30 pm: All-ages activities for children and families
11 am: A FREE showing of Hop at Scene One Cinemas
11 am to 12 pm: Enjoy our Fresh Eats Cooking Demonstration hosted by Friends of the Market
And more – including story-time and activities with local authors: Francine Dingman, Patrice
Mastrianni, and Rachel Vogel. And, CCE Master Gardeners with their seed library!
In addition to the festivities, please visit our vendors to complete your Easter and Passover celebrations.
Lamb can be found at Holly and Vine Farm and Thymeless Homestead, including roasts and steaks. If ham is on the menu, visit Longlesson Farm for fresh and no-nitrate smoked hams and May-K-Mark for bone-in and boneless ham steaks (May-K-Mark is skipping May 28th , but will be here on April 4th ).
Eggs are bountiful at Kokinda Farm, Hepatica Farm, and Jireh Organic Farm & Livestock. They’re perfect for hard-boiling and decorating, adding to a frittata, or scrambling for Easter brunch. Speaking of brunch, try breakfast sausage and traditional or Canadian bacon from Grazin’ Acres. Gomez Veggie Ville has plenty of potatoes for hash browns, potato kugel or a cheesy gratin.
Festive sweets are abundant too. Preorder babka, a sweet, braided Polish yeast bread, at Perogi Pierogi Pyroogie. Parchment Baking Company has carrot cake and citronkake, a Scandinavian lemon cake. Kids and adults will surely love the cookies and cinnamon rolls from Katie Bakes Gluten Free and Sweet Treats by Jennifer. Finally, look out for hot cross buns at the Argyle Cheese Farmer, rum cakes from Goodway Gourmet, and other festive treats from your favorite bakers.
See you at the market!
