INSIDE AND OUTSIDE

We have moved the market indoors to the 5th floor of Mill No. 5 with the exception of North of Boston Farm which will be located in the tunnel at the entrance to Mill No. 5. 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

PLEASE CHECK OUR FACEBOOK PAGE FOR UPDATES

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.

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!

The main egg laying season for geese is in the spring, usually commencing in late summer or early fall. It seems Julie's geese are a little confused. For the last couple of weeks they have been laying 3-4 eggs weekly. This may be because we are having a milder winter than usual or that Julie's geese are dreaming of spring. Either way, we're happy to have goose eggs at the market. Come on by tomorrow to see how many eggs Julie's geese laid this week.

Our first market back inside @millno5 was a success. We are grateful for our vendors, staff, and partner shops for their team effort, and for all our customers who came out and supported small local businesses. It’s greatly appreciated.
⠀
We want to provide a safe and fun environment for all. Here's how you can help:
⠀
We are trying to maintain one way traffic flow on the 5th floor. We ask that if you visit the market please enter by taking the elevator to the 5th floor or the "up" staircase. As you walk through the market please be mindful of social distancing and wear your mask at all times. If there is a line at a vendor's table please line up beside the table as you wait your turn and allow others to walk past you at a safe distance. If you want to exit the market to the 4th floor please use the center staircase. If you want to exit the building please take the "down" staircase at the end of the hallway to exit to Jackson Street.
⠀
See you at the market tomorrow 10am-1pm.
