The Farm Market is now outside. Please visit us on Middlesex Street. The tunnel will be open to pass through from Jackson Street. We will continue to assess the location of the market as conditions change. Please email farm@millno5.com if you have any questions or concerns. Thank you for your patronage and support of local food.

IMPORTANT: MASKS REQUIRED. SOCIAL DISTANCING RULES APPLY. NO MUSIC.

MANY VENDORS ARE ACCEPTING PREORDERS

WHY ARE WE DOING THIS?

We are here to support our farmers and customers. We are here for you, our friends. Food is an essential service and we believe that hosting our vendors outdoors is the safest way to do so. Mill No. 5 is not collecting any table fees and is not profiting from this market. We are so thankful for our community and look forward to better times ahead. In the meantime, we are here to facilitate healthy food options from our wonderful farmers and food producers.

During the snowy months, Nallie Pastures moves their egg laying hens from the pasture into hoophouses for protection from the wind and elements. However, they're still getting important nutrients from fresh greens. This sets Nallie Pastures' eggs apart from the grocery store variety. Steve utilizes fellow farmer, Neighbor's Acres' cut micro greens trays by feeding them to his hens. This ensures a superior tasting egg and little to no waste for Neighbor's Acre. Something you can feel good about when purchasing directly from your local farmers. See you at tomorrow’s market!

Over the years carbs have gotten a bad rap. Especially, bread. We believe no food should be deemed good or bad, just eaten in moderation and enjoyed fully. Enter Bread Obsession. A women owned bakery based out of Waltham and one of our weekly farm market vendors. Their philosophy is simple- use traditional methods to bake each loaf of bread by hand using quality ingredients and time to enhance the taste and beauty of everything they make. Because bread should be delicious. We couldn't agree more!
⠀
See you tomorrow!
