Twelve years strong the Arlington MA Farmers Market has been bringing gorgeous fresh produce to town. With at least twelve farms bringing locally produced fruit, vegetables, eggs, fish, meats, maple syrup, honey, coffee and flowers, THIS is where you should be shopping each week!

Supporting local farms and smaller ‘mom-n-pop’ businesses is one of the pleasures of shopping here. You’ll meet hard-working sincere people who believe in what they do, and produce quality you just dont find in ordinary stores these days.

This week I talked to two nice women who wisely team up to share a tent and a good time. From The Greenest Bean (www.greenestbean.com) out of Bedford, Tricia Cowell, who roasts and grinds delicious coffee. And Maureen Harder from Sassy Sauces (www.sassysauces.us), who knocks your sox off with delicious chocolate, caramel and butterscotch sauces. You can put them on… as she puts it “just about everything”. Made from pure ingredients, it just melts in your mouth.

Never go home empty handed ~ there’s something here for everyone!

Running from June 10 – Oct 28, you can find them in Arlington Center (Russel Commons Parking Lot) Wednesdays from 1-6:30pm.

This little weekly fair is run by the energetic Patsy Kramer.
