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.

Heads up! ☀️ Due to tomorrow`s extreme heat, our Armory Farmers Market will operate with a reduced vendor lineup to help keep our farmers, vendors, staff, and shoppers safe.

You`ll still find local vendors (about 5–6) with fresh products available, but the market will be smaller than usual.

If you`re planning to stop by the market, please plan accordingly:
💧 Bring a water bottle
🧢 Wear sun protection
🌳 Take breaks in the shade
❤️ Listen to your body

We appreciate your understanding as we adapt to the weather, and we`re grateful to the vendors who are able to join us despite the challenging conditions.

Stay cool, stay hydrated, and we`ll see you at the market if you`re able! We`ll be back to our full market lineup as soon as the weather cooperates.

📍Dexter Training Grounds, 3pm - dusk

Food is more than nourishment; it offers opportunity, connection, and a pathway to a brighter future. 🌱

That`s the heart of @harvestkitchenri, our culinary job training program for Rhode Island teens.

We`re excited to be featured in the newest issue of @motifmagri, which takes a closer look at how Harvest Kitchen helps young people gain hands-on experience preparing meals with local ingredients while building confidence, workplace skills, and pathways to employment.

It`s one more way we`re working to strengthen our local food system—from farm to table and beyond.

Thank you to Motif and @theadventurebroad for sharing the story and helping shine a light on the people who make this program so special!
