Shop, visit, learn and explore, with a vast array of produce, meats galore, honey, plants, baked goods, eggs, flowers, handmade crafts, dog treats, hard cider and more; you can fill your Saturday mornings, while immersing yourself in community and family friendly fun! Find the Market every Saturday, rain or shine, May through October, 7:30am to 12pm at 318 S. West Street (Culpeper Baptist Church parking lot).
Culpeper Renaissance, Inc., and the Culpeper Downtown Farmers Market are thrilled this year’s Market programs will benefit from an increase in funding thanks to the PATH Foundation.
