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.  
 
The 2024 Market Match program has been funded through grants and continued support from Berkshire Agricultural Ventures, the Hardman Fund, and Green Pastures Fund through Berkshire Taconic Community Foundation.

Icy Rain, Snow for Berkshires Today; More Snow Forecast This Weekend

Update at 4 p.m.: Ooops, looks like the nasty weather slipped southward, alleviating North Berkshire from more snow but bringing slushy mush to central and South Berkshires. Drive with caution.
 
The never-ending winter gave us a few warmish, clear days — a tease of spring — but that's apparently over. 
 
The National Weather Service in Albany, N.Y., has issued a winter storm advisory to North Berkshire, Southern Vermont and the New York Capital District. 
 
The advisory begins at noon Wednesday and runs through 4 a.m. on Thursday. 
 
Be prepared for one to 4 inches of precipitation — a sleety rain that will turn to snow later in the day. 
 
There were predictions of up to 6 inches but meteorologist Steve Caporizzo at ABC News10 on Wednesday morning has an updated forecast of 3 to 5 inches across North Berkshire and one to 3 inches to the south. 
 
There's no worry on school closures or delays in Massachusetts as it's winter break. Vermont schools, however, are still in session with their break beginning next week.
