Tupper Lake, NY – The Board of Directors of the Adirondack Farmers’ Market Cooperative recently donated $500.00 to The Wild Center. Citing the inclusion of the Tupper Lake Farmers Market in the AFMC Calendar, Dick Crawford, President of the AFMC Board said, “We appreciate that you let us hold our market at The Wild Center, and as part of celebrating twenty years of Farmers’ Markets, we would like to present The Wild Center with a $500.00 donation”.

The Tupper Lake Farmers Market, looking forward to its third year in 2011, is held every Thursday from mid-June until mid-September at The Wild Center. Over a dozen vendors from the Adirondacks and the Champlain and St. Lawrence valleys will return to the summer pavilion tent at the museum. Meats and vegetables, baked goods and herbs, hand-made crafts, honey and maple syrup will be available for sale by the producers who grew or made them.

Buying local food can have great benefits for you and your neighborhood. Local food can be healthier for you, and there is something special that happens when you meet the people who have made the food that you feed your family.

All related Farmer Market outdoor programming is free and open to the public. Admission to The Wild Center exhibits and additional programming is not included. For more information and directions please contact The Wild Center www.wildcenter.org or call 518-359-7800.
