Made possible by a partnership with: Local businesses give a community its flavor. The Market’s many local & diverse vendors set us apart from other area markets. By supporting these vendors, you ensure that uniqueness is preserved as a part of our community. Buying local foods has numerous health benefits to your family. When you buy from local farmers, you have access to fruits and vegetables that you know are chemical free, as well as grass-fed meats, fresh eggs, and dairy from cows that feast on local green grass each day. There are also benefits to eating raw local honeys, which are thought to help battle allergies. The Paul A. Doerle Sr. Farmers Market Pavilion is made possible through a generous gift from the William C. Schumacher Family Foundation, with additional support from Lafayette Economic Development Authority (LEDA), and funding from the State’s Capital Outlay Program. It will include bathrooms, covered space for 30 vendors, and an outdoor patio. The pavilion will be a beautiful anchor for our weekly market.
