- Volunteers clear land at the Urban Farms site earlier this year.
Urban Farms, the city farm in the Binghamton area, had originally scheduled to open its farmers market last weekend. The opening has now been pushed back until next spring.
The reason for the delay, according to the farm’s general manager Mary Phillips, is that they don’t have enough vendors. This summer’s record heat has severely affected crops, so produce is limited.
In the meantime, Urban Farms is selling produce from its crops, when available, on Tuesdays afternoons.
