Boston, MA Farmers Markets

It's harvest season and the farmers markets in Boston, MA are exploding with fresh fruits and veggies. All around our beautiful city you can find farmers markets brimming with local, affordable produce, fish, meat, cheeses and other locally Boston-made small batch products like jams and jellies. I can't think of a better way to explore around our city than to visit these markets. Farmers markets are more than just a chance to grocery shop, they are also a great gathering space for the community to get together. Here are a few of the offerings Boston, MA has to offer. For a more Boston, MA farmers markets check out this detailed list.

Downtown
The Boston University Farmers Market not only features local farmers and artisan producers but you will also find local musicians. Offered at the Boston University Student Center Sept 5th-October 24th.

The Copley Square Farmers Market is one of the largest markets in Massachusetts. It's mission is to partner with farmers, consumers, and communities to foster, enhance, and sustain farmers markets in Massachusetts in order to improve regional farm viability, consumer nutrition, and community social and economic development. At the corner of Boylston and Dartmouth through the end of November, Tuesdays and Fridays.

Jamaica Plain/Mission Hill
The Jamaica Plan Farmers Market is a small neighborhood market highlighting produce from Stillman's Farm. Held at the Bank of America parking lot on Centre Street Tuesday's and Saturdays. You can locally raised meats, bakery, and honey, in addition to the freshest produce.

Dorchester/Roxbury
The Dorchester House Farmers Market is held in the patient parking lot next to the health center on Dorchester Ave. They offer local, affordable produce and fish straight from the docks. Held on Tuesdays.

I hope you take the time to visit one or more of these markets and fill your pantry with locally grown, sustainable food.
