WE’VE MOVED!
Did you hear? The Medford Farmers Market has a new home: the lovely CONDON SHELL LAWN (map it!) on Mystic Valley Parkway, just north of the river and east of Winthrop Street. Check out our new digs when the market debuts in two short weeks, 3 to 7 P.M. THURSDAY, JUNE 8, and get a load of:
• Our new riverside green space in the heart of Medford
• Plenty of seating for you to sit, stay, eat, and shop
• Free parking in the shell lot, and on Winthrop and South streets
• Nearby bus service to the 94, 95, and 96 MBTA lines
• Free activities: yoga, live music, cooking demos, and more
• The return of EBT/SNAP matching—up to $20!
• Awesome neighbors: the Winthrop Street Community Garden and the ball fields at Veterans Memorial Park
• Plus, an onsite put-in means you can walk, take the bus, ride your bike, drive, or—yep—canoe/kayak to the market!
MEET 2017 MARKET MANAGER:
CAITLIN MUSTO
Caitlin is an aspiring food writer and chef who has called Medford home for five years.

A recent culinary graduate of Boston University, she is currently studying gastronomy at BU’s Metropolitan College and sustainable farming at UMASS Stockbridge School of Agriculture. Her approach to food is about making healthy ingredients simply irresistible in delicious recipes that also happen to be good for you.
