Located in Downtown Bennington, the Bennington Community Market (BCM) is a go-to spot for locals and visitors looking for fresh, high-quality food. This winter, BCM continues to offer the best of Vermont under one roof, now officially certified by the state as a Farmers Market location. From sandwiches and all-day breakfast to local meats, Vermont cheeses, and artisan products, the Market delivers both convenience and quality.
BCM’s kitchen serves sandwiches, hearty soups, and fresh salads, with specials that highlight seasonal ingredients. The full deli and bakery provide house-made pastries and desserts, while the grocery section features local and artisanal products, wine, specialty goods, and farm-fresh finds. Whether you’re stopping by for a quick bite or stocking up your pantry, the Market offers a full range of Vermont-made flavors.
In winter, BCM Farmers Market moves indoors, keeping the focus on local farmers and producers while adding seasonal touches like live music and market specials. It’s also a hub for holiday shopping, with ready-made meals, baked goods, and Vermont products that make gifting easy. The Market’s offerings include European-style cookie platters, holiday cakes, and specialty desserts like Yule Logs with chocolate mousse filling and Italian meringue buttercream, all designed to make your celebrations easier and more festive.
The holiday menu is especially notable. Thanksgiving orders feature fruit pies with all-butter crusts, carrot and pumpkin spice cakes, and classic pies including apple, apple-raspberry, blueberry, cherry, chocolate cream, and pumpkin, all based on recipes from Crazy Russian Girls. BCM also makes its own Stollen and prepares cookie assortments for gifting or entertaining. Prepared grab-and-go meals make hosting effortless, and the Market’s holiday menu items are available for order until December 18.
BCM is more than a market; it’s a community destination. Shoppers can enjoy quality meals, explore local products, or pick up seasonal ingredients and treats from Vermont producers. The Market provides an easy way to support local businesses while enjoying fresh, thoughtfully prepared foods that capture the best of Vermont’s winter season.
This winter, Bennington Community Market offers both convenience and craft. With its range of sandwiches, prepared foods, artisan products, and holiday treats, BCM brings the flavors of Southern Vermont together in one location. Whether you’re shopping for groceries, holiday gifts, or a quick meal, the Market makes it easy to enjoy the taste and spirit of Vermont all season long.
