Pleasantville Farmers Market has the most committed shoppers and producers. During the pandemic our shoppers have continued supporting regional farmers and food artisans (who for their part have not let up in bringing inspiring foods to market every week). Our producers are ready to help you safely gather ingredients for this week's meals. And they're offering items so you can have fun creating menus for Sunday's big game and for Valentine's Day (which is almost here). Note: Tree Juice Maple Syrup is making their February visit this Saturday (next visit is in April).
