Milford MA Farmers Market

Milford MA Farmers Market ties its weekly shopping to the Milford Community Use Program, placing a food-buying routine alongside a named local civic partner rather than treating the market as a stand-alone pop-up. The market runs Saturdays at the Milford Water Company on Dilla Street, where shoppers can move through a mix of produce farms, prepared foods, pantry staples, and service vendors in one stop. SNAP is accepted here, and the market also highlights Senior WIC alongside vegetables, fruits, meats, and fresh eggs, giving the market a practical role in how Milford residents shop during the season.

Why it matters locally

“Buy Fresh, Buy Local!” is not just a slogan on this market’s pages; the vendor lineup keeps that message tied to nearby farm production and repeat community programming. Medway Community Farm is described as producing fresh, organically grown food for Medway and the surrounding area, while Fairmount Fruit Farm is identified as a local family-owned farm with an orchard, greenhouses, and a hydroponic farm. The market also makes room for local organizations through events and collaborations, including Children Across America activities and a Friends of the Milford Town Library book sale. That combination keeps the market grounded in weekly food access, nearby growers, and recurring Milford-area civic participation.

What you'll find there

The strongest pattern here is a market that mixes working farms with pantry goods, ready-to-eat food, and a few practical or handmade booths. Instead of focusing on produce alone, Milford’s roster spreads across vegetables, meats, bread, honey, preserves, crafts, and even knife sharpening.

• -Browse unusual vegetables from The Pumpkin Farm, a small vegetable farm run by Jason and Nicole Lobisser.
• -Pick up organically grown food from Medway Community Farm, which serves Medway and the surrounding area.
• -Shop Fairmount Fruit Farm for a family-run mix that includes an apple orchard, greenhouses, and hydroponic farming.
• -Watch for D’Allesandro Farm, which was announced as joining in July.
• -Find local honey from Buzz 10 Honey.
• -Add preserves from Treats, Jams & More.
• -Choose pickles, pickled beets, jams, and other spicy-or-not items from Everything Jalapeno and Not.
• -Take home homemade fresh Uyghur bread from Uyghur Bread.
• -Grab zucchini breads and muffins from Julie’s Z Breads, a family-owned baking company.
• -Bring knives to Eric’s Sharper Edge for sharpening while you shop.
• -Pick up soy candles from Long Pond Candles.
• -Look over custom handmade silk scarves from Scarfing Artist.
• -Stop at Dom’s Meats for meat purchases.
• -Order breakfast, lunch, and fries from the Yellow Submarine Food Truck.

Special-event programming appears regularly. The market has hosted an Opening Day Celebration, Literacy Day at the Market, Strawberry Day, a Dimes for Dinners fundraiser, a Friends of the Milford Town Library book sale, and Joey’s Poetry Booth for free collaborative poems while people shop. At Milford, one clear thread is how often shopping gets paired with small, hands-on activities. Joey’s Poetry Booth invited visitors to make a free collaborative poem with guest poet Joey Gould while they shopped, turning an ordinary pass through the stalls into a participatory stop. Children Across America also appeared with a Mini Book Club and Lemonade Challenge, and the market scheduled Literacy Day, Back to School crafts, and even an umbrella contest built around the “most liked” umbrella. That pattern gives the market a distinct feel: not just vendors in a line, but a Saturday setup where reading, making, and playful one-day themes sit right alongside produce, honey, bread, and lunch.

Know before you go

No dogs are allowed, which is the detail most likely to change how you plan the trip. Parking is centered around the Milford Water Company: visitors can use the lots directly in front of, to the right of, and behind the building. There are also limited handicapped and direct-access spaces along the Milford Water Company access road, and staff direct drivers as they pull in. The market’s main home is the Milford Water Company on Dilla Street, though one listed special date moved to Milford Town Hall before returning to 66 Dilla St for following Saturdays. Restrooms are not available on site.

Payments & SNAP

SNAP is accepted at the Milford MA Farmers Market, and the market also promotes Senior WIC alongside its produce, meat, and egg offerings. The MFM Info Table is specifically referenced for SNAP information, which gives shoppers a clear place to start when they arrive.
