Lexington Farmers’ Market
About
Held on Tuesday afternoons from late May through October, the Lexington Farmers’ Market brings local farms, specialty food vendors and artisans together in Lexington center. It is a producer-only market, so vendors may sell only what they grow, create or produce themselves. Along with farm goods and specialty foods, the market hosts community groups and entertainment, making it a weekly gathering spot as well as a place to shop for groceries.
A core goal is giving everyone in the community access to local, healthy food regardless of income. The market runs a robust SNAP Match program for food-insecure shoppers and accepts HIP benefits and WIC and senior coupons. The summer season takes place at Fletcher Park, and the market also organizes a Thanksgiving FEASTival before the holiday and a small winter market for the colder months.
