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.

WEATHER UPDATE: We’ve never done this before, but due to the impending hurricane headed our way, we are cancelling the Farm Market this Sunday, August 22nd. With the Governor’s suggestions to stay off the roads, we want to keep everyone safe. @millno5 will be closed all day Sunday, as well.

But have no fear, Not even a hurricane could stop North of Boston Farm. They will be set up with their emergency mobile farm stand on Middlesex Street on Sunday 7-10am. If you prefer to stay home, North of Boston offers home delivery. Here’s the link to their website: https://northofboston.farm/home-delivery

If you need eggs or chicken, @nalliepastures has eggs, chicken breast, and boneless chicken thighs for farm pick up in Dracut. You can email farmer Steve at: Nalliepastures@gmail.com

Stay safe and we’ll see you on Sunday, August 29th!

We've officially entered the dog days of summer. Some of our vendors need some time to harvest and get ready for a busy fall so the next few weeks will be mini markets with a few less vendors. We're here for you and looking forward to an expanded market again this fall for peak farm season!

See you tomorrow!

WEATHER UPDATE: Since there is a good likelihood it might rain tomorrow with thunderstorms, we want to err on the side of caution and move the farm market inside Mill No.5. Smokestacks and lighting aren't a good mix, and we want to keep everyone safe.

North of Boston Farm will be set up inside the tunnel and Empanada Dada will be parked in front of the iron gates on Jackson St. The rest of the market will be inside Mill No. 5 on the 5th floor.
⠀
Sorry for the last minute changes, but we didn't want to cancel. We appreciate everyone's flexibility! See you tomorrow on the 5th floor, 10am-1pm.
