The Barnstead Farmers Market In New Hampshire Features Local Makers And Live Entertainment

New Hampshire is full of beautiful farmland perfect for raising animals and growing everything from flowers to berries. And let's not forget about the goats and other animals that offer a fun activity during a visit. All of these farms mean plenty of farmers markets, too. And one of our favorites is this one! With local crafts and live entertainment, this market offers an entire day's worth of fun.

The Barnstead Farmers Market in Barnstead offers one of the most unique and fun experiences you can have on a Saturday in the summer!

While we imagine you've been to a farmers market in the past, this one is probably different than what you're used to.

From flowers to jams to veggies, they certainly do offer what you might expect.

But in addition to the regular farm stands they also feature local artists and makers for a full opportunity to support local New Hampshire small businesses.

On any given Saturday you might find a photographer, a painter or a baker.

And you'll always find fun activities for kids. There are games and workshops that help them use their brains and their hands. You're not likely to find an iPad in sight!

We also love the small-batch New Hampshire products like local soda.

Our favorite days are when local celebrities, like this goat friend, show up!

Plan on spending some time here to shop around, enjoy the local products and listen to the live entertainment that you'll find just about every Saturday.

This farmers market is worth more than just a walk-through. It's truly a day trip that you'll want to do more than once.

The Barnstead Farmers Market is open on Saturdays from June through September from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. You can learn more about it by checking out their website or following them on Facebook. They can be reached on 978-504-2520.
