Enjoy Local Produce and Products

Set your table every week with fresh local produce, poultry, baked goods, and more.

The market grew from the vision of the Route 113 Heritage Corridor Partnership members of which supported the revitalization of Souderton and Telford. With help from the Heritage Partners, Farmers joined together and still direct much of the operations of the market. As the Souderton-Telford Main Streets gained legs, the program assumed promotion and programming for the Farmers’ Market, in 2003 integrating it with the Main Streets program and its many volunteers.

Look for upgrades to the Telford Train Station beginning this year and into the next. The station will be upgraded and leased to an as yet unnamed business. The parking lot will gain trees, benches, a pavilion and more!
