Milford Summer Farmers' Market

Milford Summer Farmers' Market brings a notably broad Saturday mix to Granite Town Plaza, with 28 vendors spanning produce, fish, breads, maple, cheese, coffee, wine, body care, and handmade goods. Fresh Start Farm lists greens, root vegetables, vining vegetables, and other crops, while Liberty Fish brings fresh and wild seafood from the Boston seaport district, giving the market a range that moves beyond a produce-only stop. Live music is scheduled every Saturday from May through October, adding a regular event rhythm alongside the vendor lineup. The setting is easy to spot across from The New Hampshire Antique Co-op on Elm Street.

Why it matters locally

Fresh Start Farm, Hungry Bear Farm, Begin Family Farm, Ledge Top Farm, and Paradise Farm LLC anchor the market with vegetables, berries, eggs, and grass-fed beef and pasture-raised pork, keeping a strong share of the lineup tied to farm production rather than resale. The market also makes room for food businesses that process what they grow or source into distinctive products, from Berkshire Gold's bourbon-barrel maple syrup to Joyberry Farms' mushroom soups, risottos, teas, coffees, powders, granola, and tinctures. That combination of farm staples and specialty makers gives Milford shoppers a place to buy both weekly ingredients and shelf-stable pantry items in one stop.

What you'll find there

The lineup runs from field-grown staples to prepared foods and nonfood makers, with especially deep representation in produce, baking, preserves, beverages, and personal care. It reads like a market where a single lap can cover dinner ingredients, bread, coffee, treats, and a few giftable goods.

Know before you go

No dogs are allowed, which is one of the clearest visit-planning details for this market. Parking is straightforward: free spaces are available in front, on the side, and in back of the buildings at Granite Town Plaza, 191 Elm St. The market is across from The New Hampshire Antique Co-op, a useful landmark when approaching on Elm Street. Restrooms are not available on site. If you're building a short shopping trip, the Saturday 10am to 1pm window is compact, so it helps to arrive with a focused list rather than treating it like an all-day browse.

Payments & SNAP

SNAP/EBT is accepted at Milford Summer Farmers' Market, an important option for shoppers planning produce and staple purchases. Payment details are presented clearly by the market, which helps when you're deciding how to split purchases across produce, baked goods, pantry items, and prepared foods.
