Hi Subscriber Name.

THIS WEEK Sept 18th - Rain Date for Grandparents Celebration!

AND

Kick-off Yankee Doodle Homecoming week with us at the Market!

If you haven’t visited yet this Season, what the heck are you waiting for?! We have only 3 more markets left! The last market of our 2023 Season is Oct 9th so please plan your visit soon.

Indulge in seasonal local fresh produce, meats, fish, cheese, baked goods and all the delightful flavors of Autumn. Farmers are harvesting apples, pears, cranberries, corn, squash, tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, brussels, onions, garlic, potatoes, peas, mushrooms, microgreens and more! It sure is a wonderful time of year to get outside, enjoy the cooler weather and drink in all the sights and smells of Fall in New England.

Our 8 Farms are fully stocked with loads of deliciousness for you. It’s been a dynamic weather year for them so make sure you stop to ask them how they’re doing and to give them the love we know you feel so we can count on having them back for many more years.

Vote now! The deadline is Sept 18

Please be reminded that the market closes at dusk. As Fall quickly approaches, dusk gets earlier so be sure to plan on arriving early so you don’t miss out. Official Sunset on Sept. 18 is at 6:49 pm, so the closing bell is planned for 6:15 pm.


UNDER THE BIG TENT - DJ Dave’s Mobile Entertainment is back!! Get ready to dance and sing along with this one-of-a-kind, rolling DJ booth.

KIDS TENT - We’ll have a craft activity available for kids to make & take, while supplies last. Welcome back Brooke with her facepainting artistry.

DEMO TENT - How much do you know about fall harvest? Since most crops are usually planted in the spring season and allowed to grow during the summer months, fall (autumn) is the time when crops are eventually ready to be harvested. Do you have questions about harvesting in the fall? Ask our Master Gardener, Susan Haas, how to break through your gardening challenges

MARKET MANAGERS TENT - Find out more about our Market, ask questions, discover how you can volunteer, and redeem your SNAP benefits. Let us know what you’d like to see at our market! We want to hear from you.

COMMUNITY PARTNERS TENT - Visit and learn more about valuable community programs offered to you from Billerica Rotary, Billerica Cultural Council, Billerica Public Library, Billerica Yankee Doodle Homecoming, The Wish Project and Friends of the COA.

TAKE PICTURES - We want to see and show everyone all the fun going on but we can’t be everywhere in the crowd. We invite you to take pictures of your experiences at the Market and share them on our Facebook Group.

SAVE THE DATE - On September 23, look for us at Billerica’s 2023 Yankee Doodle Homecoming Celebration! This year’s theme is Billerica: Our Community.
