Our summer market: Offering Connecticut-grown produce, as fresh as it gets, delicious things to eat, artisan ware, entertainment, and sustainable-living programs...the Boston Globe calls the Coventry Regional Farmers’ Market "one of the top ten things to do in New England this weekend."  Surrounded by over 500 acres of forest and picturesque rural landscape, the Hale Farm provides a gracious backdrop for this vibrant market.

The Coventry Regional Farmers' Market provides the community with the freshest and best-tasting locally-grown produce while helping to preserve the tradition of small farms in the region. We specialize in organic, heirloom, ethnic and gourmet varieties of fruits and vegetables, and offer grass-fed beef, free-range eggs, smoked bacon, rustic breads, farmstead cheeses, freshly-baked pies, European pastries, sparkling jars of preserves and pickles, gourmet dog treats, fresh herbs, cut flowers, chocolate fudge, honey, maple syrup, and more! 

The market also features the work of local artists and artisans.  Purchase diverse, handmade wares from those who crafted them and learn how they were created … think hemp clothing, goat’s milk soaps, wrought iron, beeswax candles, stoneware, herbal tinctures, handcrafted beadwork, vintage cotton tote bags, and handspun yarns.   

Live entertainment makes shopping at the market an opportunity to visit and unwind. Sustainable living programs are a fun way to learn something new. Pet a goat, have lunch in a grassy spot under the maple trees, or give your little one a ride in a red wagon. A visit to our market with friends and family is the pièce de résistance of any weekend!


About the Hale Homestead...
The Nathan Hale Homestead was the home of the family of State Hero, Nathan Hale. Nathan’s father, Richard Hale, was a prosperous livestock farmer who built the house for his large family. Ardent patriots, six of Richard’s eight sons served in the patriot army. One son, Capt. Nathan Hale was caught and hanged as a spy at age 21 by the British in September of 1776. He is famous for his alleged last words, “I only regret that I have but one life to lose for my country.”

Constructed in 1776, the Homestead is a pristine example of a Georgian-style home. Although sold out of the Hale family in the 1820s, the house has remained virtually intact. The house was first restored by George Dudley Seymour, who saved the house in the early 20th century. The house is furnished with Hale-family pieces and period antiques based on the family inventories. Much of the acreage associated with the Hale farm, is now the Nathan Hale State Forest.
