Powers Farm Market has been a popular market and seasonal destination since our beginnings as a modest truck stand in the early 1960's. Today, Powers Farm Market is a thriving, beloved community landmark that has flourished throughout the years. Along with our top-quality Powers-grown produce, our Market is also famous for it's delicious baked goods, beautiful flowers and plants, and unique, one-of-a-kind gifts and treasures.
Today, the dairy cows have been replaced with sheep, donkeys, alpacas, goats, chickens, and deer, which the public have access to at the Market. The cow pastures have been replaced by sweetcorn, pumpkins, asparagus, berries, sunflowers, and Christmas trees, all available at Powers.
