Out and About With the Market
Thank you to our Market Fans! We appreciate your support not only at the Market, but for our other efforts as well. This past Monday we attended a Veggie Table Talk at the Media-Upper Providence Library with Justin from Robin Hill Organics and Emma from Kneehigh Farm. We had a great discussion about what it’s like to be an independent farmer, the history of the Media Farmers Market, and took questions from the audience.
We also want to thank everyone who came out during out fundraising night at Iron Hill this past April. We appreciate your continued support of the Market as we work hard to keep improving and adding to the Market to provide you with the freshest, healthiest, and best produce, food, and products.

New Vendor: iSwich Gourmet
iSwich Gourmet is a innovative dessert company located in West Chester, PA with a focus on ice cream based creations of the highest quality. They specialize in various natural ice cream products and incorporate ingredients from only the finest sources. Founded by Angela O’Brien, iSwich was born from her love of food and passion in the kitchen. Angela needed a dessert, and created the Bananas Foster ice cream sandwich. Over time Angela built and refined her recipes, and was finally convinced by her family to partner with her nephew and start iSwich. Come out to the Market to meet iSwich and see what delicious flavors they have available!
