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!
