Watertown Farmers Market
About
The Watertown Farmers’ Market is a weekly seasonal market in Saltonstall Park, next to City Hall, selling farm-fresh produce, local and specialty foods and artisan goods, with music on market days. Run by the City of Watertown, it aims to support local agriculture and businesses, address food insecurity, build community and promote healthy, sustainable living. An interactive market map on its website shows the vendor layout and schedule.
Food access is a central part of the market’s mission. Shoppers can pay with cash, credit cards at most stands, SNAP, HIP and Farmers’ Market Nutrition Coupons, and the market explains its food access programs on a dedicated SNAP/HIP page. Partner programs help foster community connections and promote healthy eating. Day-to-day management falls to the city’s community wellness and food access staff, including a wellness program coordinator.
