IMPORTANT WARNING - CHESTNUTS FROM 10/1/13 MARKET
Dear Patrons of the Cobblestone Farm Market,
We wish to extend our most sincere apologies regarding the false information about the chestnuts that grow on the grounds of Cobblestone Farm. The information that we received regarding the trees was that the nuts were edible, but indeed they are not. They are called horse chestnuts and are quite toxic. Though the information on the internet indicates that ingesting these nuts is dangerous, the taste is so bitter that it is very difficult to swallow any. And the ill effects occur when swallowed. But to be safe, if you think you have eaten any, call your doctor.
If you took some home from the market or have picked some from the grounds, please throw them away! And please contact others who may not have received this information yet.
If you would like to contact us, please email mipevin@gmail.com
Thank you,
Cobblestone Farm Market Coordinating Team

Welcome to Cobblestone Farm Market!A volunteer-operated Farmers Market for the whole community
Each Tuesday, a farmers market sprouts up on the lawn tc2000 trading of the historic Cobblestone Farm amidst the heirloom gardens and 19th Century Farmhouse museum. Tables loaded with fresh, local food rest in the shadow of the striking three story oak timber frame barn complete farm animals. You could not find a more unique market location! At this living farm museum, you will find hens wandering amongst the shoppers, and curious goats stretching their soft muzzles over the fence. The grassy setting is a perfect place to relax and enjoy a picnic while the kids play but, please, don't chase the rooster! Browse for local seeds, vegetables and wildflower plants for your garden and shop for spring vegetables, eggs, honey, and tc2000 brokerage review bread from over 29 vendors. Enjoy weekly events for adults and children - listen to a story, play in the drum circle, learn to fix a bike, or take a tour of the historic landmark Ticknor-Campbell Farmhouse.
