Suffolk residents looking for fresh, local vegetables, fruits and other homemade products know the benefits of Suffolk’s farmers’ markets.

Two farmers’ markets — one in downtown and one in North Suffolk — operate every week to provide shoppers with products from local farmers and vendors.

The Suffolk Farmers’ Market in downtown Suffolk will hold Family Fun Days on several upcoming weekends, including this Saturday. The downtown market operates from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Saturdays and 3 to 6 p.m. on Wednesdays.

On upcoming Family Fun Days, there will be live entertainment and a petting zoo provided by the Teeny Tiny Farm.

The Bluenotes, a band composed of Suffolk emergency personnel, will provide the music on July 16 and Aug. 20. On July 23, the Ancient Men will play, and Joe Maniscalco will play on Aug. 6.

Launched in 2005, the Suffolk Farmers’ Market is located at Market Park at the intersection of Main and Prentis streets, just across from the Suffolk Seaboard Station Railroad Museum.
