The Norwood Farmer’s Market is now in full swing! It was a spectacular spring afternoon on the June 21 Opening Day with shoppers lining up for fresh produce and bread, buying fresh fish, picking up a book at the Morrill Memorial Library, purchasing a new plant, and visiting organization tables!

 

Throughout the summer, on Tuesdays, through October 18, 2-6 p.m., the Norwood Town Common will be hosting an outdoor market that will include fresh produce, bread, fish, pastries, artisans, music, non-profit and municipal vendors, and so much more!

Vendors will be scheduled and added in throughout the season. Right now, the committed food vendors are: Oakdale Farms, Jordan Brothers Seafood, LaBaquette North Bakery, and Hearth Artisan’s Bread.  Be sure to check out the market’s new Facebook page each week to learn more! (The page was still in production at press time). 

But wait, there’s more! While the committee of the Norwood Market revived the event to encourage and provide fresh produce through local vendors, the event is also intended as a resource and hub for the community to gather, have fun, interact, and learn about other vendors, companies, services, Norwood municipalities, and non-profit organizations. These will include: Emerald City Plant Shop, Wild Willy’s Sports Cards, the Norwood Art Association, a pop-up library from the Morrill Memorial Library, Women’s Business Network of Norwood, the Norwood Conservation Commission, the Norwood Art Association, Norwood Light Broadband, the Dirty Dog Wash (nail clipping), pottery sales, artisans, music many more to come! 

Watch for weekly information through social media! Check it out to see what new and exciting vendors, services, or entertainment will be available the following Tuesday!

The Norwood Farmer’s Market would not be available without the generosity of its sponsors.
