Events in the Town of Amherst

The Market at Second Stage is an eclectic group of local producers, bakers, and makers who offer a wide range of products.

Items for sale generally include fresh produce, baked goods, honey, plants, flowers, art, and much more! The market takes place outdoors but will move indoors in case of rain or extreme heat.

• Select vendors accept vouchers from Senior Farmers Market Nutrition Program (SFMNP) and Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) participants.
• The market offers Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) Electronic Benefits Transfer (EBT) and SUN Bucks matching thanks to support from the Virginia First Match (VFM) program and the USDA Gus Schumacher Nutrition Incentive Program (GusNIP). All purchase amounts will be doubled, and the match may be used toward fresh fruits and vegetables.
• Please note that they only accept cash, checks, SFMNP or WIC vouchers, SUN Bucks, or SNAP EBT. Some vendors also accept credit cards.
