The Hubbards Farmers’ Market began in 1996, next to the Trellis Café on Hwy. 3. The following year it moved to Bishop’s Park on the Fitzroy River, where the green and white striped market tents became a sign of spring in Hubbards. Two years were spent at the Fishplant on the Cove, before the Aspotogan Heritage Trust approached the Market organizers with an offer to use the Barn. The Barn has been home to the growing Market for seven years.
The 30 to 40 vendors pay a weekly table fee to the Hubbards Barn Association, which leases the property from the Trust. The fees are used for operating expenses and marketing.
