Berlin Farmers Market To Relocate To Fire Company Property

BERLIN -- Months after a tough fight to stay in its traditional location on Main Street, the Berlin Farmers’ Market will be moving next month to the nearby Berlin Fire Company (BFC).

The original plan from the town to re-locate the market had been fiercely opposed, but this new idea, which came from the market vendors, is being endorsed by all sides.

“I think it’s a great location for them … we’re very supportive and we think that it’s an excellent move,” said Mayor Gee Williams.

Though the farmers had been extremely reluctant to leave their usual location on Main Street across from Stevenson United Methodist Church, where they have setup for the last 19 years, Williams noted that the new site in the BFC’s extensive parking lot will only be a stone’s throw from where they were and the move will open more public parking to Berlin’s bustling downtown.
