We are a wonderful collection of farmers, fishermen, bakers, artists, and craftspeople, who come together every Friday morning, 10-12, from Memorial Day weekend through October to host the Stonington Market. Rain or shine, the outdoor market is held in the parking lot of the Island Community Center, a short walk from the harbor front.
Our vendors offer fresh produce, seafood, meats, cheese, hot & cold prepared foods, breads & baked goods, olive oil, honey, maple syrup, flowers, coffee, woodcrafts, jewelry, ornaments, artwork, pottery, baby gifts, hand-knit sweaters, cloth napkins, pet treats, and more! We are joined by several local, non-profit organizations, who provide assistance and information to residents and visitors alike. Entertainment is provided by local musicians.
Outdoor activities near the market: The Pine Hill Preserve is located on Little Deer Isle. Its focal point is Pine Hill, which offers views of Deer Island & distant mountains. The area is also significant for its geological formations & plant life. The climb is steep & difficult, but worth the view!
