Summer is here, and with it comes a parade of local farmers markets. But sometimes they can be hard to find, so we made a map and list of dates and times for options in the Metro-Boston area.
Why not ditch the grocery store chain in favor of shopping local this season? The farmers market experience is enriching, communal, and offers a wide variety of produce, handmade products, and entertainment.
