Both locations of the market are now closed for the season. We will reopen in April, 2009.

Vendor notice: The annual meeting is set for January 19, 2009 at 6pm with a snow date of January 26. This will be conducted at the Augusta County Gov’t Center in Verona, Virginia. All current and potential vendors for 2009 should make every effort to attend this meeting, as reserved spaces for the entire season are delegated at this time. If you have questions, contact a vendor representative or market master as soon as possible (contact info is listed at the bottom of this page).

Wednesday Market

"Verona: On market days the squares are piled high with garlic and most every sort of vegetable and fruit. The people shout, throw things, scuffle, laugh and sing all day long. The mild climate and cheap food make life easy for them."
                                            
                                                               
J.W. Goethe  (circa 1787)
