North Adams Farmers Market Moving to Main Street
NORTH ADAMS, Mass. — The North Adams Farmers Market is set to start its outdoor summer season on May 18, 2024, at a new location.
This year, the market will be hosted at a new location on Main Street in North Adams sharing space with Touchy Coffee, a pop coffee shop that will be at 90 Main Street for the month of May.
There will be over a dozen vendors at the kickoff market and organizers expect early-season produce and flowers, local meats, fish fresh from the coast, preserves, baked goods, eggs, honey, syrup, and prepared foods like sandwiches and coffee. Composting will be back this season every other weekend and there will be an array of local crafters each week.
Weekly vendors attending the market will be listed and updated in the market’s weekly newsletter.
The market is open to the public from 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m., rain or shine, every Saturday through Oct. 19, 2024.
Attendees will find parking options available in the Steeple City Plaza or along the opposite side of Main Street.
The North Adams Farmers Market (NAFM) accepts cash, credit cards, SNAP/EBT, HIP, and WIC/Senior FMNP coupons. The market will continue to double up to $30 of Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP/EBT) benefits each week through their Market Match program.
This spring weekend, there are a variety of events in and around the Berkshires, including Spring Celebrations, music, cleanups, and more.
