Great Barrington Farmers Market I

Great Barrington Farmers Market I puts food access at the center of its Saturday market, with a stated commitment to making local food accessible to everyone in the community and a SNAP program focused on farm-fresh fruits and vegetables. That mission sits alongside a broad vendor roster at the Great Barrington Fairgrounds on Main Street, where shoppers can build a basket from produce farms, eggs, dairy, bread, seafood, coffee, cider, and prepared foods. The result is a market shaped as much by weekly grocery shopping as by browsing for a few extra items to take home.

What you'll find there

Produce carries much of the market's shape, but the lineup extends well beyond vegetables into grass-fed meat, eggs, fermented foods, bakery goods, seafood, coffee, pops, cider, and other prepared foods. Several farms are also tied to the market's steering committee, which gives the roster a strong farm-led feel.

• -Browse organic vegetables, bedding plants, and specialty cut flowers from Markristo Farm.
• -Find 100% grass-fed beef, pastured pork, chicken, eggs, select vegetables, and a 100% grass-fed dairy from North Plain Farm.
• -Pick up locally sourced fermented vegetables from Hosta Hill.
• -Shop produce from Justamere Tree Farm.
• -Add fruits and vegetables from Maynard Farm to your bag.
• -Look for orchard fruit from Samascott Orchard.
• -Bring home mushrooms from Tivoli Mushroooms.
• -Choose produce from MayFlower Farm.
• -Stop for produce from Lavender Hills Farm.
• -Get meat, cheese, and eggs from Cricket Creek.

Know before you go

No dogs are allowed; the market specifies service animals only. Parking is redirected because the intersection of Church and Main is closed, with listed options on Pleasant Street, River Street, Church Street, and School Street, behind Searle's Middle School, on the Jane Iredale lot next to the warehouse, and in the School Street lot south of the Iredale headquarters building. The market meets at the Great Barrington Fairgrounds, 659 Main Street, which matters if you're navigating by address rather than downtown cross streets. Restrooms are not available on site.

Payments & SNAP

SNAP/EBT is accepted here, and the market describes SNAP as being distributed in wooden tokens that can be redeemed for qualifying goods at the market. That fits the market's stated focus on making local food accessible and on helping shoppers spend SNAP dollars on farm-fresh fruits and vegetables.
