A Message to Supporters of the CDPHP Farmers’ & Artisans’ Market
Each year, around this time, we bring you exciting news about the upcoming CDPHP Farmers’ & Artisans’ Market, our returning and new vendors, and what you can look forward to if you plan to stop by.
As we all know – this isn’t a typical year, and that’s why we’re announcing the cancellation of the 2020 season of the market.
It’s disappointing news for all of us who enjoy taking a lunch time stroll through the market to pick up ready-to-eat meals, vegetables, hand-crafted items, and much more.
While we look forward to the return of the market in future years, we’ve also compiled the list below as a way for you to connect with and support our amazing market vendors in the coming months.

Cheryl Dugas
We just went to the Farmers Market to buy some vegetables, and there were no farmers there! Last year we bought from George’s and a couple of others nearly every week. Where are they?
Natalia Burkart
Hi Cheryl – thanks for the feedback, and so sorry you were disappointed. Our fruit and veggie farmers are behind this year due to the weather. The threat of rain has also caused some to not show. George’s told us they’ll be here next week!
Patti
No Farmers Market in Amsterdam ?
Natalia Burkart
Hi, Patti! Our CDPHP Farmers’ & Artisans’ Market is located right here at the CDPHP headquarters, but looks like there are a few happening in your neck of the woods: https://www.amsterdamny.gov/our-city/things-to-do/farmers-markets
