Maugeri's Farm Market, Swedesboro

      Tuesday, July 13, 2021: Thus, I went to a farm market. (The differences are that a farmers’ market had different vendors selling their merchandise in one place. Whereas a farm market is a retail business located on a farm, and the owner owns both the farm and the retail business that can be anything from a farm stand to a mid-sized store.) On the date above, I browsed and bought a few items in Gloucester County at Maugeri’s Farm Market, 1991 Oldman’s Creek Road, Swedesboro, New Jersey (856-294-9900). Unlike many farm and farmers’ markets that only operate one or a few days a week—mostly on weekends, this market operated seven days a week. While that market from the outside didn’t look large, it was surrounded by fields where most of the produce grew. In addition to produce, this place sold baked goods, gift items, and cheeses, as well as preserved foods that they canned there, food items in freezers, etc. Therefore, what they lacked in building size, they made up for in variety—especially in produce!
