BETHANY BEACH FARMERS’ MARKET – September 1 2024 Market Report

2024 Season has come to an end.

2025 Season 6/1 – 8/31

Can you believe the 2024 BBFM season is over? The 14-week season whizzed by in a flash. According to our vendors, it was a success for them. We had most of the veteran vendors plus three new ones this year who were happy to be part of the positive experience that is our unique Market.

Thanks to the many who made this season a success: We could not have the BBFM without our excellent volunteers. Two were house guests who joined their hosts and had a great BBFM experience. There are several husband-and-wife teams. We had several new volunteers from the Women’s Civic Club of Bethany Beach join us this year plus many returns. We had two new volunteers who just stopped at our information tent and volunteered. Whether they worked one shift or all season, everyone’s contributions were valuable. We can’t thank them enough.

We thank the Town of Bethany Beach for providing our parking lot and summer officers to monitor our traffic; they did a great job ensuring the lot had spots reserved for our volunteers and made sure only customers park in our lot.

We love our customers who come from near and far. We had one couple from Perrier France who were in town for our Sister City event in July. I heard one customer say they were from Maine. One volunteer lives in Seattle and visits for the month of August and helped us three times. We have many locals who are weekly customers and lots of vacationers who love the experience of stocking up on fresh products from our Market in a very friendly environment.Thanks to one and all from the BBFM Board. We hope to see you June 1, 2025.
