Roslindale Farmers Market

Welcome back to the Roslindale Farmers Market! Our opening day is June 7, 2025 and lasts until November 22, 2025. About the farmers market: The Roslindale Village Main Street Farmers Market is a staple in the community. The Summer Farmers Market typically begins the first Saturday in June and runs until just before Thanksgiving. The RVMS Summer Farmers Market is Boston’s most prominent neighborhood farmers market, with 30 vendors and 3,000 customers weekly. Since the start of the market 30 years ago, it has generated $4 Million in the local economy for local and regional vendors as well as Roslindale businesses. The RVMS Farmers Market is also a food access point for all. The market continues to have Summer Eats Meals sponsored by Project Bread and the YMCA, which offers free meals to young people under 18. In addition, the market serves SNAP/EBT and farmers market coupon recipients while supporting the Roslindale Community Fridge. In 2022 alone, $91,084 in SNAP and coupon benefits were spent at the Farmers Market, a 18.5% increase from 2021. ​ In the summer, Adams Park is filled with vendors and free programming, including wellness activities, live performances, and engaging children’s activities. We also have a Community Stall program, where local nonprofits and community groups can have a table free of charge to engage the community and share their missions. Additionally, to encourage local business participation, we continue to feature Roslindale Village businesses with low-fee booths, including Seymore Green, Jimmies Cafe, Birch St House &amp; Garden, Rozzie Bound, Friends of the Roslindale Library, and Joyful Table Pottery.
