Welcome Market Lovers!

Last week, we kicked off the season with a record number of visitors counted by our volunteers who were busy greeting market guests at both entrances.

Get ready for another week at Billerica Community Farmers Market! This week we scheduled all 8 of our 2025 registered farms … much to choose from.

What's In Season This Week:

• The sweetest strawberries are perfect for pies, dipped in chocolate or enjoyed straight from the vine!

• Don't miss the ripe tomatoes, juicy cucumbers & crisp lettuce. You’ll find snap peas, broccoli, scapes, herbs, microgreens and more spring produce.

• Other products highlighted this week include honey, mushrooms and seafood.

>>>>The weather is predicted to be really hot & super sunny, so please come prepared with water bottles, hats, umbrellas, hand held fans or whatever else you need to stay cool and safe.<<<<

Market Happenings:

BIG TENT - This Monday enjoy live music by local artist, Julie Kinscheck. Get out of the sun, grab a spot at a table in the shade, wear a smile and breath. It’s a great opportunity to slow down from the busy day and meet new friends.

KIDS TENT - Featuring a sweet craft activity available for kids to make & take, free while supplies last.

BACK FIELD - Harvard Alpaca Ranch is back with their Alpacas, weather permitting.

MARKET MANAGERS TENT - Located at the main entrance at Grove Street stop by to find out more about our Market, ask questions, discover how you can volunteer, and redeem your SNAP & SUN BUCKS benefits. Let us know what you’d like to see at our market! We want to hear from you.

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.
