Connecticut features 82 farmers markets throughout the state. The demand for farmers markets is strong, as they provide a benefit for farmers and consumers alike — an opportunity for farmers to sell their crops, and a convenient one-stop shopping facility for consumers to purchase fresh, high-quality produce and other farm specialty items.

The Farmers Market at Howard Brown Park is produced by the Connecticut Department of Agriculture Farmers Market program, and sponsored locally by Rose City Renaissance, the Norwich Main Street Program.
