Market Events
Lancaster Central Market events are anticipated all year long. From our Annual Strawberry Festival the second weekend in June, to the Harvest Breakfast the first Saturday in October followed by unique fun planned for ExtraGive the Friday before Thanksgiving and Market open late during the Maryor’s Tree Lighting – these events produce lasting memories and cherished times with loved ones and our Market community!
“The best of everything! Fresh veggies – spices – fish – really great coffee – beautiful flowers – the best cheese! and so much more. I never leave empty-handed and never leave with an empty belly either! Highly recommend.”
