Farmers’ markets are one of the easiest ways to enjoy Coastal Delaware like a local. 

From fresh produce and baked goods to flowers, seafood, honey, jams, coffee, wine, and handmade finds, each market has its own feel and its own mix of vendors. 

Some are perfect for a quick weekday stop, while others are made for a slower morning or afternoon out. 

No matter where you are along the coast, there is likely a market nearby worth adding to your routine!
