OUR FARMERS MARKET

The Roslindale Village Main Street Farmers Market is a staple in the community. The Summer Farmers Market typically begins the first Saturday in June and runs until just before Thanksgiving. The Winter Farmers Market generally starts in early January and runs though March. 

​

The RVMS Summer Farmers Market is Boston’s most prominent neighborhood farmers market, with 30 vendors and 3,000 customers weekly. Since the start of the market 30 years ago, it has generated $4 Million in the local economy for local and regional vendors as well as Roslindale businesses. The RVMS Farmers Market is also a food access point for all. In addition, the market serves SNAP/EBT and farmers market coupon recipients while supporting the Roslindale Community Fridge. In 2022 alone, $91,084 in SNAP and coupon benefits were spent at the Farmers Market, a 18.5% increase from 2021.

​

In the summer, Adams Park is filled with vendors and free programming, including wellness activities, live performances, and engaging children’s activities. We also have a Community Stall program, where local nonprofits and community groups can have a table free of charge to engage the community and share their missions. Additionally, to encourage local business participation, we continue to feature Roslindale Village businesses with low-fee booths, including Seymore Green, Jimmies Cafe, Birch St House & Garden, Rozzie Bound, Friends of the Roslindale Library, and Joyful Table Pottery.

​

Our Winter Farmers Market takes place at the Emerald Society, 10 Birch St . We have a robust selection of farms, specialty foods, and craft vendors each week. Through our Winter Farmers Market, we provide access to fresh produce, even in the cold winter months.

​

Free parking is available at the municipal lot off South Street on Taft Hill Terrace. We encourage everyone to join us and, if possible, walk, bike, and use public transportation when traveling to the market.
