Connecting Farmers & Eaters
The path food travels — the food system — includes everything from growing and harvesting to processing, packaging, transporting, selling, eating, and disposing of food. Our mission is to grow that system to be sustainable for both the farmers and eaters in our region. We offer markets and transparent enterprise systems that help New England farmers, fishers, and food producers reach more customers and reduce waste. And we work with the community through outreach, incentives, educational and hunger relief programs to increase the accessibility and affordability of fresh, local foods.

This Saturday, support the hands that feed us 🤝
Now more than ever, where we spend our dollars matters. When we shop small at the farmers market, we’re choosing to keep care and resources circulating to the local farmers, neighbors, and friends who sustain our community every day.
It’s one way we take care of each other. It’s how we feed each other. And it’s a crucial part of how we build a more equitable future: together.
Community care starts close to home. Join us at the market this weekend 💚
P.S. Don’t forget that your SNAP dollars go twice as far this Saturday and every Saturday at the farmers market! More bang for your buck = more food on your plate.

Thank you to @newportrestaurantgroup for their generous donation to our @hopesharvestri program as part of their annual gift card fundraiser! Through the fundraiser, $2.00 from every gift card purchase is donated to local nonprofits fighting food insecurity.
This generous contribution to Hope’s Harvest will help us provide nutritious food to our neighbors in need while ensuring local farmers and food producers are fairly compensated for their hard work.
