In light of the current pandemic, the WFM wants to reach out to our valued shoppers on behalf of our vendors and the Market itself. While the current situation calls for all of us not to spread the virus, it is more important than ever to fulfill our mission to provide access to healthy, fresh affordable food and support local producers and small farms.
As we continue to plan our season, it's clear we will need more people to make this happen. We're asking for volunteers. Read more about our plans here.
These are the main rules for keeping safe at the market. You'll see this sign all around the one-way route, passing all the vendors.
This new directory also includes vendors who will not be physically at our site. Some have participated in the past and some are new vendors we were hoping to introduce at this season’s Market. For various reasons, these vendors are unable to comply with current mandates but to support our mission of supporting local farmers and businesses, we’ve chosen to include them.
LET'S TALK ABOUT FOOD SECURITY
Have you ever worried about having enough food for you and your family?
Since 2011, the Waltham Farmers' Market has increased access to healthy, local food in our community by enabling people to use their SNAP dollars at our market to purchase eligible food products.
We provide a dollar-for-dollar match program, giving up to $10 per EBT card holder, per week. In 2012, the year we began matching SNAP dollars, we doubled approximately $1,000 in SNAP sales. This past season, in 2019, the demand for our matching dollars rose to over $10,000. To fund this program's growing need in Waltham, we're increasing our fundraising efforts.
We need YOU. We invite you to support our SNAP match program.
Your donation — 100% of it — benefits shoppers and our local farmers, as we are a volunteer-run organization. Waltham Fields Community Farm, a 501(c)3 non-profit, is our fiscal sponsor, allowing deductibility for gifts to the Waltham Farmers’ Market. We will send a receipt if you send a check, or you can print your PayPal receipt if you go that way. To donate please mail your check to:
