Jamming at the Wakefield Marketplace

Ann Hamilton, a Carroll County Extension Educator with the UNH Cooperative Extension, will be presenting a jam making display and demonstration on Saturday, August 21 from 9:00 until 11:30 am at the Wakefield Marketplace. This is an opportunity to learn how to make jam and follow safe food preservation procedures.

Fresh naturally-grown farm produce and products, delectable home-baked goods and unique hand-made crafts are offered each Saturday, 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., from May 29 to October 9. Many items found at the Marketplace can be given as unusual and distinctive gifts.

As summer progresses a wider range of fresh vegetables, fruits and flowers becomes available. Most farmers accept WIC coupons. Also, toward the end of each month, demonstrations are provided. Fiber Arts Day will be held in September.

When you visit the Marketplace, across from Palmer’s Motel at the corner of Wakefield Road and Route 16 in Wakefield, NH, be sure to sign up for the monthly drawing to win a $10 shopping certificate.
