The market is open for business once again in Downtown Fairmont. Every
Tuesday and Saturday, you can find a wide variety
of farm-fresh, locally produced vegetables, fruit,
herbs, jams, baked goods, and more from several
different WV vendors. The market is held on the corner of Adams and Madison
streets in the post office parking lot every Tuesday from 4-6pm and Saturday
from 8-10am until late October, rain or shine. As
the summer rolls on, the market will only get bigger and better, so come early
and come often for the best selection. Most farmers accept WIC and
Senior Farmers Market Nutritional Program vouchers. For more information about
