Rice’s Market is a household name in Bucks County; just about every local has experienced the shopping mecca in Solebury Township at one point or another. What you may not realize, however, is just how far back Rice’s story begins. Like many of the most charming locations in Bucks County, Rice’s Market’s story starts long ago, over 150 years back.
The History of Rice’s Market
In the spring of 1860, Mr. A.L. Rice settled in Solebury Township, Pennsylvania, on a farm which is now the site of Rice’s Sale & Country Market. Rice auctioned his products, as well as his neighbors’ products, at various times during the year. As word of his success spread, farmers brought their cattle and farm products for Rice to offer for sale. By the 1950′s, a market was added to the Tuesday livestock auctions, and the rest is history. Rice’s Market quickly grew to over 500 vendors from throughout the Northeast area. (more…)
