Sunday, February 4, from 5:30 to 7:30 pm
Cooperstown Farmers’ Market, 101 Main Street in Pioneer Alley, Cooperstown
This year’s response to Grilled Cheese for a Good Cause has been amazing — so much so that the event is now SOLD OUT. We very much wish we could accommodate more folks, but our market building is only so big. Thank you to everyone for supporting the Cooperstown Farmers’ Market. Please be sure to also support the wonderful chefs, restaurants, and businesses who donate time, talent, and products to make it such a wonderful celebration. We’re fortunate we have such talented folks in our community!
Enjoy gourmet grilled cheese sandwiches and soup by local chefs, desserts by the Otesaga, and local beer, wine, and sweet or sparkling non-alcoholic cider. Stoddard Hollow String Band will perform. This event, part of Cooperstown Winter Carnival, is a fun and delicious way to support the year-round Cooperstown Farmers’ Market, which Otsego 2000 founded in 1991.
