¡Hoy es el último día de la temporada del Mercado de Agricultores del Departamento de Salud Pública del Condado de Catawba! Gracias a todas las personas que han apoyado nuestro mercado, ya sea comprando aquí o compartiendo información sobre él. También queremos agradecer a nuestros agricultores, quienes vinieron cada semana, incluso durante los días de mucho calor, para asegurarse de que nuestros compradores tuvieran alimentos saludables, frescos y locales para comprar. Por último, gracias a nuestro personal, que hizo posible el mercado al dedicar tiempo cada semana a preparar todo, administrar el mercado y recoger todo al final del día.

¡Hoy también es el último día para usar sus Double Bucks de SNAP/EBT, Bonus Bucks de WIC o tarjetas WIC del Mercado de Agricultores en nuestro mercado! ¡Visítenos hoy de 10 a. m. a 1 p. m. para comprar productos locales por última vez este año!

El mercado regresará el próximo año para su temporada 2027, el primer jueves de junio.

THE MARKET IS OPEN TODAY FROM 10AM-1PM! Even though it's a rainy day, the Catawba County Library System will be bringing the fun with their Library to Go. Healthy Blue Medicaid recipients can stop by to talk to a representative from Blue Cross NC.

It's your last chance to shop for local goodies and use any Double or Bonus Bucks. People who have SNAP/EBT can still get up to $30 in matching funds today. Market tokens never expire, so if you can't make it today hold on to them for next season. See you at the market, which takes place at the parking lot in front of Catawba County Public Health.

The market today is RAIN OR SHINE! Today is the last day of the Catawba County Public Health's Farmers Market season. Thank you to everyone who has supported our market by shopping here or spreading the word. We also need to thank our farmers who came out each week, even in very hot weather, to make sure our shoppers had healthy, fresh and local foods to purchase. Lastly, thank you to our staff who made the market possible by dedicating time each week to setting up, running the market, and breaking down at the end of the day.

Today is also the last day you can use your SNAP/EBT Double Bucks, WIC Bonus Bucks, or WIC Farmers Market Cards at our market. Stop by today from 10am-1pm to shop for local produce one last time this year.

The market will return next year for its 2027 season on the first Thursday of June.
