The 2020 Summer season for the Kittery Community Market has officially kicked off with the first three weeks already behind us.  So far, we have seen a great response from the community, and we are incredibly grateful for all the support.  We have many of our regular vendors returning for this season as well as some new vendors to spice things up a little!

The market is being held at Post Office Square, 10 Shapleigh Rd, Kittery Rd. Every Sunday 10 am-2 pm, first half hour reserved for Seniors and Immuno-Compromised.  A huge thank you to Driscoll Realty for the use of your parking lot!

The safety of our guests and vendors is of the utmost importance this season.  In response to the COVID-19 situation, we are adhering to strict safety measures to ensure social distancing, limit the handling of products, increased sanitation, and a curbside pickup option.  We have a new spacious layout for the vendors to keep everyone spread out, we require that vendors, staff, and guests wear masks (we provide masks if you need one), and we have a handwashing station and sanitizer available.  Please visit our COVID-19 Safety Measures page to learn more.

Now for the fun stuff!

New website! Take a look around and be sure to sign up for our newsletter.  We will be giving updates in our weekly newsletter about the upcoming markets, giveaways, promotions, vendors, etc…

We will be offering online raffles and giveaways all summer for gift cards to local restaurants who are offering curbside pickup, dine-in seating, and outdoor seating.  This is our way to help connect the community with the local businesses who have been so supportive of the Kittery Community Market over the years.

Get to Know Our Amazing Vendors:

The heart and soul of Kittery Community Market are our vendors and we want to help you get to know them better.  Our vendors are a collection of local farmers, local food producers, fishermen, crafters, and small businesses who are eager to connect with the community and tell you more about their products and practices.

Check out our Vendor Spotlights on Instagram and Facebook where we will be doing a feature on each of the summer vendors.  You can also get all of their links and introduction to them on the “Our Vendors” page of the website.  To see a list of the vendors currently participating in the Summer or Winter seasons, you can go to the pages designated for each season.  We will start updating the Winter Season page early fall.
