Join us for the largest indoor farmers market of its kind in New England every Saturday through April 27, 9am to 1pm, at the Hope Artiste Village building, 1005 Main Street, Pawtucket (click for map).
WE APPRECIATE YOU!
What a wonderful wintertime season it’s been! Thank you to all of our amazingly dedicated market vendors for making this season the most delicious yet. Much gratitude to our hardworking team of staff and volunteers, without whom a market of this size could never operate smoothly. And to all of our shoppers — we can’t thank you enough for coming out to support local food throughout the many months of rain, sleet, snow, and sunshine since the season started back in November. Every time you choose to purchase from local farmers, fishers, foragers, and makers you are strengthening our local economy and building a healthier food system!
We hope you will continue to choose local all spring and summer at any of the 40+ outdoor markets across our little state! See the 2019 RI Summer Farmers Market Guide. Or search the Local Food Guide for a market near you.

2007 (Bonus-Bonus: it was held inside the AS220 gallery downtown!) - How many people does it take to operate this market each week (Farm Fresh RI staff and volunteers)?
9–10 - What is “The Balloon Lady’s” first name in real life?

Tote Bag Blow Out We’re reducing the price again on this season’s tote bag, so it’s even easier for you to take home a piece of this Pawtucket Winter Market season. Market tote bags are now on sale for $12! Pick one up at any of our Welcome Tables at the market! (All proceeds go to our 501c3 nonprofit organization.) |

COMPOST PICKUP
 |
Bring your food scraps! Earth Appliance Organics will pick up food waste at the farmers market. Look for two collection bins by the front of the market on Main Street, and one by the rear side door on Dudley Street. |
EXTENSIVE SELECTION OF LOCAL FOODS
The market features a wide variety of locally grown produce, poultry, meats, and cheeses; locally caught fish and shellfish; baked goods and prepared foods; value-added items like salsas, jams, sauces, ferments, pickles, kimchi, and krauts; self-care products, decorations, and seasonal gifts; and so much more!
With two long, connected hallways filled with vendors — which we refer to as the Green hallway (1005 Main Street entrance) and Yellow hallway (999 Main Street entrance) — there’s something for everyone at the Pawtucket Wintertime Farmers Market!

Overview Map The market layout inside the building, with surrounding streets and parking. PLEASE NOTE: Until Further Notice, the hill along the side of the building connecting Dudley Street to Esten Ave — where the large parking lot is behind the market — is closed to vehicles (open to foot traffic) due to construction. This is unfortunate but unavoidable. Rest assured we will be excited to share the news the minute the hill is reopened, so stay tuned.
Use Alternate Route To access the large parking lot behind the market, take Moshassuck St or Warren Ave to Esten Ave.
