We Have Everything You Need for Your Easter Meal at the Mississippi Farmers Market!

Have you ever wondered why Easter is on a different date each year? And why is it on April 4, 2021, which is earlier than last year and the year before? The holiday can occur on any Sunday between March 22 and April 25. Easter's exact date varies so much because it actually depends on the moon. The holiday is set to coincide with the first Sunday after the Paschal Full Moon, the first full moon after the vernal equinox. 

From appetizers to desserts, and everything in between, we can meet your needs at the Mississippi Farmers Market! All of the ingredients for a delicious Easter meal can be found up and down and all around the market - just take a stroll and you will leave very happy. You will find eggs for dying and deviling, flowers for decorating, goodies for special Easter baskets, sweets for all of your "sweets" and enough protein and fruits and vegetables to fill a banquet table!
