Booth’s Corner Farmer’s Market
Booth’s Corner Farmer’s Market is a family business that opened in the 1950s in Garnet Valley, PA. Featuring 90+ merchants selling items ranging from candy to toys to candles, Booth’s Corner has anything and everything you need, all under one roof!
Booth’s Corner describes itself as “a melting pot of cultures from our local area,” which cannot be truer. Open only two days a week: Fridays and Saturdays, from 9am-8pm, this farmer’s market is a Delco hotspot! Neumann students love Booth’s Market for their low prices and wide range of vendors.
“My favorite thing about going to Booth’s Corner is the memories I have there. When we were younger, my dad took my sister and I to Booth’s Corner every weekend. I feel like I grew up there!” says Liv Bowers, a freshman at Neumann, lifelong resident of Delaware County, and now, an employee at Booth’s Corner!
On their website, Booth’s Corner highlights the importance of family, which is the central goal of the business. On its website, the market highlights this value that “allows you, the customer, to feel like part of the family as you walk through the market.”
