Our local artisans have produced a selection of holiday gifts, including crafts, baked goods, ferments, and preserves, as well as fresh food including hot food and drink.

Hosted by farmers of Just Food Community Farm, featuring local ecological products, creative food items, and holiday gifts – honey, bee products, ferments, gourmet condiments, lamb products, baked goods, ready-to-go food, jam and jelly, eco-stuffer items, crafts, hot apple cider, raffle draw and more!

Along with holiday doodads and appurtenances from local craft vendors, our farmers offer fascinating ferments (kimchi!), lamb indulgences, jiggling jams and jellies, honeybee sweets, magical mushrooms, and much, much more! 

Great under the tree and shared on the table for your holiday feasts! 

Eco Gift Cards
