At their regular meeting on June 21st Council approved a motion that transfers the operation of the farmers market from the Bellefonte Farmers Market Association to the Borough.  Citing a number of legal issues associated with having the Association in charge of the market, Council felt this action was the best course of action at this time.

The market will still take place on Wednesdays and Saturdays in front of the Courthouse and will be open to both producers and non-producers.

Welcome to Bellefonte

Bellefonte is a borough of approximately 6400 people, located in the center of Pennsylvania. It has been home to seven United States Governors, contains exquisite Victorian architecture, is rich in history related to the iron and lumber industry, contains natural resources ideal for outdoor water recreation, and has taken a preeminent role in education. Bellefonte was named for its enormous spring by the French statesman, Talleyrand. The rampant demolition of historic buildings so prevalent elsewhere in the United States from the 1950s – 1970s largely bypassed Bellefonte leaving untouched many large, historically and architecturally significant commercial and residential buildings.
